I know you guys love these things! According to the owner, the shotgun has no markings on the barrels or the sides of the receiver. The only markings are on the bottoms of the barrels and the flats. Hopefully the pictures will post.

Alan, to be of any help we need much larger and crisper pictures. The ones you posted are of no help.

Okay. I'll try again. I can't take responsibility for the pictures. The owner of this shotgun lives in Finland. I'll see if he can send me some different pictures.

Thanks. I'll try to post them in a different way.

The concave ends of the pins make me think that it may be Belgian.

It has some Francotte features but no markings. I am not even close to good enough to decipher the stampfest on the the barrel bottoms and flats.

From the proofs I would say French and from the engraving I would say definitely not Belgium. A French guild gun perhaps.
