Salut Argo,
Je ne connais pas la date du décès de Jean-Pierre Didier.
Par contre son fils Jean Didier, qui au début du XXè siècle réunit les 2 canonneries Didier-Drevet et Ronchard-Cizeron qui cesseront leurs activités en 1924, est lui décédé en 1940.


Salut,
Jean-Pierre Didier 1831-1914

Back in the forum, after a few years.
In the meantime, I picked up a very interesting French gun which needs some dating help. Thinking it's mid 1920s, a product of Aime Maisonnial.
How to post photos....

Still trying to narrow down the dates in Saint-Etienne for use of cm for chambers. Here is a Manufrance Robust Model 2, SN 23698 with 6.5 cm chambers, which on the Robust line would date to 1923.

There is also a Robust model 3, SN 8903 with 6.5 cm chambers, which per the current Serial Number chart would date to 1921. It appears in a YouTube video.

There is also a MF (model unknown) SN 20309, 7cm chambers. It is highly engraved with the "mDf" stamp as a special gun. With a top key I'm assuming this is a Robust:

Ah, well it's certainly beautiful. Thanks. That was pretty silly of me trying to classify a hammer gun as a robust.
