Rake aboot 4,936 Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 Are you sure thats the maker ? Lots of guns bought in from the continent were marked up with the sellers ID,, ironmongers, gunshops etc, but the guns themselves were generic, Belgiun or Spanish etc ATB Quote Link to post
