I bought a Bouvier 12gauge at the Vegas show Sunday i know nothing about the maker. The gun is a boxlock. It has nice wood ,ejectors ,3rd fastner , but barrels are tighter than full choke. I need information. Thanks
I looked at that gun several times. You got a nice one. I don't know the maker.

I just looked it up in Carder. He doesn't list a Bouvier but he does list a Boudier. However all he says is French proof marks, Sidelock, double trigger, English stock, Fancy wood, and Straight grip.
Hope that helps.

Any pics?
Jacky O was a Bouvier.

When I lived in the Bay Area back in the '70's our neighbor had a Bouvier. Looked like a giant black Schnauzer. Very friendly dog.

We have lived with Bouvier des Flanders for more than 35 years. Often two at a time. Great dogs.

There were Bouviers in France working as gun makers and dealers from 1651 through 1970. Without more info....

Marge Simpson also was a Bouvier.
No I'not the crimp dude , who I've never heard of. Sorry Frank
Was that maybe "Hartin" with the half crimp?
The name is sort of the French equivalent of cowboy. More literally, cattle herder--which is what the dogs of that name were bred to do.
Can't recall ever having encountered a French or Belgian gun carrying that name.
