For Belgium proofed guns:
http://site.voila.fr/guideliege/
Click on the link: Le banc d'épreuve
If you want it in english, almost:
http://babelfish.altavista.com/
Enter the url from above, select the languages
Then click on the link: The bench of Test
Scroll down a bit. There is a list of inspectors and then a table with date codes from 1922 to 1999.
If I am understanding this correctly. A gun was submitted for proof. The proof house marks the gun received. They proof it. They mark it as proofed. They mark the date. They measure and weigh the barrels. They record all of this on the barrels or the flats. Finally, I think the inspector marks the gun as completed. Also, the barrel maker may have their mark on the barrels and the gun maker may have their mark on it as well. |
