Yes, the same proof mark is on the barrel flats, along with some others. This oval with the lion is one I have not seen before, & can not find any reference for it. The guy I purchased the gun from called it a Guild gun. I understand what a guild gun is, but a stamp like this looks like a manufactures mark. Jim.

Who is the maker of the gun? It could be a makers mark?

The PT is a Paris nitro proof. The Lion/GF? Not a proof mark. So it must be the maker. Whoever that may be...

does anyone have a copy of this book?
https://www.abebooks.com/servlet/Sea...ctionary&isbn= there are only a few pages on line A, G and S that I have found, but it looks very comprehensive there are a lot of French makers listed https://www.archivingindustry.com/Gu...irectory-g.pdf
