Revdoc, there may be a similar look, but consider that the British Laminated was one of , if not THE best, of that period. I believe it was best in the tests often reported , was it by Greener ? Now, when we think of Belgian Laminated, we take a step back, as it is usually the lowest grade offered and on the lowest grade guns. I think you will find a different quality in the British Laminated Steel. I also see laminated steel on P. Mullin guns of the same period. His guns sold for up to $300, when that would almost buy a house with servants. Of course, his guns originated in Birmingham and he finished them to the very highest level, but with no engraving.
