How is it choked? All the French guns I've owned or handled were choked tighter than a *frogs arse. Since I upland hunt almost exclusively I end up having to open up the choke on the RH barrel and sometimes a little on the LH barrel as well.

*that's water tight!

L. Brown,

you misunderstood, it's not on the barrels of my gun.
I found that in the net and took it only for the words "acier" and "Garanti".

Every now and then, you run across a Frenchie--sometimes with a model name like "Grand Becassier" (best translated as "Woodcock Special")--that has one barrel with dispersion rifling. Sometimes misinterpreted as being a slug gun.

Raimey,

Seems there were other powders as T. Found Poudre J. and M. as well.
To my eyes the second letter is a J...!?

I'd agree with PJ. That would mean your gun is pre-1914. After that, only Poudre T was accepted for proof.
