OK, I'm confused, is that a French built gun and proofed in Belgium? Or French built for a Belgium firm that stamped their name on it?
As far as game guns go you would have to go Brit, and a top of the line Brit, to match the handling qualities of a French built gun.
Somedays. I handled the sale of a used 28 gauge R model Bruchet, brought in by Loren Thomas, LTD, back in the early 1980s. It had 24" tubes and a 16" LOP stock, with about 3" of drop. Wes Gilpin, RIP, winced when I mentioned the gun, it was ordered like that for somebody. The not original owner seller was happy to be rid of it, the buyer was tickled pink, and I never met a hominid that walked upright that the gun would have fit.
It had a lot to do with me getting out of used guns.
Back to your first question, I don't think anybody in France had anything to do with that Britte. But, the term used for the shape of the stock would be familiar to someone from either country.
Dustin knows what it is. But, I doubt anyone else does.
I have it on my R10. Love it.
Best,
Ted
