I have just purchased an FEG 12 ga, SxS. There is no maker's name anywhere on the gun, just the model name "Monte carlo" (on the top of the left barrel at the breech. The proof marks are as follows:
Left barrel - The number 12 superimposed over a 70, in a diamond-shaped marking, the numbers 60170/66, the stamped words "No Bullet" and "smokeless powder", the number 17.2, and a raindrop-shaped marking with a capital "I" in the center.
Right barrel - Same as the left, except the numbers are 1495 and 17.7.
I know that the 12-70 marks mean 12 ga, and the 17.2 and 17.7 are the bore sizes, but can anyone tell me the meaning of "No Bullet" and what the raindrop marking mean?
Thanks
