During my two year tour down here in Souh Africa, I have seen a number of Belgium proofed .410 double barrel "Poachers" folding shotguns. They all seemed quite well made and and come in a number of different grades and configurations. A skeletonized buttstock being most notable.
Yes you guessed it I could not go home without one, well two actually. Export papers no problem. Import papers no problem, except when it came identifing the maker. I got on Little Gun BE and got one ID'd as a Georges Laloux. The other was tougher. We settled on Leclercq, Manufacture Liegiose d'Amres du Fues and ATF blessed me.
All this research however led me to a different conclusion. There are a lot a different Belgium companies listing these little shotguns as part of their inventory. But I don't believe all these identical guns were made by all these different makers.
That brings me to my question. What is the Systeme Leclerc and who really made all thses little guns?
