A Francotte Model Question
 

I recently purchased this nice Francotte but am unsure of its Grade/Model. I believe it is a 30E?
Any help appreciated!

did you check the serial number with the Griffin & Howe site ?

they have records for VL&D and A&F who imported many if not most of these.

if they have records the research letter ill give you a wealth of information

Rick,
Thank you!
They do have a record and would provide a letter for $50. No info provided.
I really only would like to know the model.

BTW- Bob does the G&H research letter- his is a pleasure to talk to and his letters are a wealth of information - well worth $50 IMHO

The grade 30 E's generally had birds engraved on the sideplates...bottom of the frame...and on the trigger guard. Yours appears to be a grade 25...( 25 E, if it has ejectors

Thank you Austin!!

Definitely a 25E model.
