I've found that the proof is marked c for 1924 but was looking for more info that might be possible beyond the below Gun.

Belgium Double

My Granfather's Gun acquired stateside in New York was passed to me by my living Uncle because he knew it would be used. My Grandfather arrived in 1909 at age 11. Its believed he acquired it new.

What gives Czech origins Raimey?

One of the questions I have is the choke notations. It's marked 18.3 on both barrels which is .720 and a caliper on the muzzle measures .670 so .720-.670=> .050???

Yes, you could term it Czech Baroque considering the adornment & sourcing of Liege.
