Hello Roland and welcome! I guess I'll put you to work right away. I just picked up a Belgium SxS boxlock. Plane jane but well made. Barrels are marked Jamart & Co. Liege Toreador Special Stal. If you have any insight to this maker I would be in your debt. Thanks, Bob

Hi Roland, welcome to the forum I think I know you, not personaly but I know that you work on a regular base for one of my friends Paul Ulens and maybe also for Jean-Jacques Desmedt. I knew your father Raymond, I think I am the forum member who live most close to you I live in a little town with the name Meerbeke and this is 34 KM N.W. of Brussels. I know that you are a very talented engraver, like your father was. I am sure that you can contribute to this forum and I am also sure that many members are ready to help you if you have questions. Greetings from a Belgian member, Marc

Hello Marc, My father worked on FN Herstal and today I try to make and create an other style, my own style of pattern, of course the acanthus leafs are the basic of engraving. Here you can see a special design I am engraving, no usual... but I try to adapt my design of the customer taste and desire. http://sphotos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/558067_10200571793888162_1048047683_n.jpg
