,,I have had this Drilling for several years, it is .405 Winchester X 12 X 12.
What can you tell me about it? Thanks in advance...
It was made in 1926, as Daryl stated. It was proofed for Nitro. It appears to have the mark of Charles Gillet. Charle Gillet was a little known gun dealer in what once called Poulseur. He had relatives involved in the gun trade who were located in Liege and Herstal.
The crown over R indicates a rifled barrel and is clearly marked .405 caliber. The remaining proof marks are for the shotgun barrels. The shotgun was chambered for 12ga 2 1/2" shells.
