Thank you, Andre', for the additional photographs and information. I stand mistaken about the engraving treatment being similar to what I had seen on several Francottes. I thought that the first photograph showed 'feathers' or plumes and that was the treatment I was referring to. It looks to be a very nice gun and the muzzle photograph would have me believe that the bbls and ribs were brazed, making it quite suitable for a 'hot corner', should one be found.
