Yes Robert, I did indeed read your previous post. Likewise, I read a post from someone who says he OWNS Belgian doubles with Deeley latches--but you questioned that, asking for photographic proof. So . . . why should anyone believe your claim about "L'Abielle"--the "L'", by the way, being inconsequential, as anyone who speaks French (as I do) would tell you, since it's simply the definite article, like "the" in English--without similar photographic proof forthcoming from you? Especially since I have seen French guns marked "Abeille", and since Beag looked at his, which has the same spelling.
So there's something wrong with holding you to the same standards you require of others, Robert? Do as I say, not as I do--would that be your motto?
And feel free to watch away where my posts are concerned, Bobby Boy. Something from several years ago . . . right, like I'm going to mistake Belgian proofs for German. Having owned numerous guns made both places. You care to dig up that "error" on my part, or are you just miffed that someone finally got around to calling you on your overblown pomposity?
Apply the same standards of "proof" to yourself, Robert, that you apply to everyone else, and you'll have no problem with me. And if you can come up with a photo of a gun marked "L'Abielle", that's fine by me. That was all I asked for.
