-- MS = M. Serre Ft (Fabricant=maker) in St Etienne, e.g. 15 rue Chapelon in the early 1930s. -- Godard = Ferdinad Godard, the retailer. -- Lamotte-Beuvron = small town just south of Orleans where Godard was located. (See below) -- F&Gs in oval? - not clear enough photo to make out - probably the barrel maker. -- BR or 3R in oval on water table - not clear enough to make out. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](http://i.imgur.com/7CzXm1L.png)

F&Cs in the oval is canonnier FANGET. The 3R in the oval on the flats I assume is the inspector marks?
Is there any further info on M.Serre, small shop, conglomerate or state manufacturer?

WILDCATTLE identified the address of M. Serre as 15 rue Chapelon. However, not sure that existed in 1930...there was a Place Chapelon. Il existait une rue Chapelon qui est devenue la rue Pierre Termier. Au croisement de cette rue avec la rue de la Mulatière, la ville a décidé d'acquérir, le 15 juin 1839, un terrain à bâtir pour en faire une place, celle-ci deviendra la place Chapelon qui honore trois générations. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/6QJljwC.png)

Likely the most important thing for the original poster is the gun is made to be used with smokeless powder.

Rick, I notice you posted the gun on Passionlachasse.fr at virtually the same time you queried us here. Please let us know if you find anything out this board didn't uncover.
