12GA boxlock fully engraved with the square crossbolt and a straight stock, The safety has the word "safe" in gold, the barrels appear not to be damascus. I've read a little history in the web. I was just wondering about how well made they are and are they worth spending a little money on. Thanks, Robert

sounds like a nice early gun of better quality...

Robert, post some good clear pics if you have them,the maker probably made many grades of Gun, pics will help identify what you have, or are looking at

There are few basic criteria for judging quality of Belgian piece. Type of barrel steel used , checkering finesse and quality of fit, finish and polish in places not seen when the gun is fully assembled. Very simple and refreshing to deal with if one has hands, eyes and magnifier with a light source.

Thanks for the info. The barrels were bad and action was loose. So I passed on it.
