Default Fs. Dumoulin & Co

I have just purchased a Dumoulin shotgun 20 ga. 26" barrels& ejectors, straight stock, checkered butt. This shotgun has the prettiest wood I have ever owned. I do not know anything about this company. I would say this gun is probaby 20 years old or less. And, in 98% condition. I hope you guys can help.
Thanks,
David
Merry Christmas & God Bless

You might try posting on the doublegun site. http://www.doublegunshop.com/forums. Lots of experts on European firearms over there.

Many of the gun's parts are manufactured elsewhere and shipped to the Dumoulin factory which more or less qualifies them as guild guns. They go through the proof process just as any other gun. Many of them end up being engraved with the name of the company that sells the gun. I have looked at several of these guns and they appear to be well made except that many of them have a sling swivel capture stud on the underside of the barrels and a swivel stud embedded in the stock. I am curious what you paid, in general terms, for the gun. JF
