I was looking at a rather plain Belgium gun that on the top of each barrel has a stamp of a walking bear. Can't find my little book of symbols on guns, but I remember the Germans and Austrians like to use bears though usually rampart ones. Could this be a Belgium gun with a German steel barrel?

I'm looking at a Cabelas gun, so pictures are difficult. It's just a passing fancy.

Fernand Dumoulin registered a bear as his trademark. I have never seen it. Later the firm used DF, FDC and a windmill with DU&CO and an eagle with open wings.

That's it Pete. Fernand Dumoulin was the name on the gun I couldn't remember. All for nothing as the gun is already gone. But thanks I'm a bit smarter now.
