To change topic, let speak Abeille.
I though interesting or even very good the information page 13 from PeteM about a big dealer named Abeille. It could be very well be our guy. Please take a quick look.On p 13 you can click on the dustyoldbooks website.

A search for L'ABIELLE Fusil turned up this catalog.

Apparently this 1935 catalog says L'Abielle was a gun and ammunition maker. At least that is what I get from the description. They did make hammerless shotguns.... might be worth picking up if you have one of their guns.
