A few more:
A lot of information to digest. This gun was built during the Jallas e Cie era, after the First World War and prior to the second. There is a catalog available from Abbey books from this era. The gun was originally a 2 1/2 chamber gun that featured longitudinally polished bores, which, was a big deal. It is a double proofed 12 gauge, with, what appears to be Jean Breuil chopper-lump tubes. It was proofed with French powder T in St. Etienne. They were still pointing out they won a gold medal at exposition in 1904.
Neat gun. Do the side locks and disc set strikers add much to the 1894 Darne patent that this was hewn from? Im not so sure about that.
You guys that study barrel makers marks recognize those marks?
Best,
Ted
