As Raimey accurately points out Boehler or as it is spelled really Böhler steel
comes from Austria.

It is not at all strange to have an Italian double with Böhler Antinit steel barrels.
My Beretta S3EL has them. I would think that Böhler supplied the steel and the
tubes were made in the Brescia region. In the case of Beretta I suppose they made
the barrels themselves. I'd add that that steel was used for the best range of guns.

As far as signor Belleri is concerned I have found this so far:
Church in Ponte Zanano:


Here there are several email adresses on the left side, and Antonio Belleri is named
at the bottom (Economia), where they list the different activities, as a maker of shotguns. Maybe someone there can help:

P.S.: Pictures of the gun would really help. jc

Hello Seth,

I thought it would be nice to see the surroundings where your double was made.

Concerning the pictures, try to use a tripod and a couple of lamps for proper lighting.
If your camera has a macro feature (usually designated in the menu with a flower)
all the better.

Seth, here is a list of Italian gunmakers where I could find four Belleris: Luigi, Antonio, Livio and Angelo. Italian Database . At the bottom of the list there is an email link for Edoardo Mori, in charge of the website, who can surely help you. Sending him pictures will surely help.

(There is also Giuseppe Belleri (born 1934) engraver mentioned in a book by Mario Abbiatico.)
