It was made by FABBRICA ARMI GARDONESE. That is why the maker's mark is F.A.G. They were registered with the proof house, but that is all I have. Bohler steel is considered very good. In Italy this gun would sell today for $200 to $300. From the sling swivels it does not appear to made for the American market. We had a strong military presence when this gun was proofed. Possibly brought back by a GI.
