Formidable! J'avais l'intention de visiter Saint-Etienne le prochain fois nous étions dans la region de Saint-Chamond...mais avec covid c'est difficile. J'espère que vous recevrez de bonnes nouvelles. Je n'ai pas eu beaucoup de succès avec les archives de Paris. La date de basculement 'est une date historique pour les fusils de chasse de Saint-Etienne et je suis sûr que Passionlachasse serait également intéressée.
No ill feelings to our friend Argo44, but I'd just like to point out that I am sure I am not the only unilingual English speaker on the board. When a non-English speaker makes a post that is unintelligible to me but understood by Mr. Argo or one of the other posters and who can read the post displays his or her ability to speak a foreign language it is also meaningless to me.
It would be a kindness if a member here who can understand that foreign gibberish would take a moment and translate the foreign language post and then post his doubtlessly knowledgeable post in English as well a in French, Spanish, German etc. so the foreign poster can also read the reply, just in case the other poster can read English no better than I can read French.
Just a thought...Geo
