Both barrels are stamped 65. This is 2.5" chambers, but they are now 2.75"

Both barrels are stamped 18.3. This is .720 bore. R=.719, L=.717 by my gauge. A lot tighter than what we see in our bores of .729 in 12 ga.

Left barrel has GRAND over PRIX in a circle.

Right barrel has MEDAILLE over DCR or DOR under it in a circle.

On both barrels is +STETIENNE under the Crown and branches which I found on a chart that says circa 1897 "standard proof for finished guns"

I can't find a reference to the crown with PT under it for a shotgun, but the NRA site says smokeless powder proof for rifles?

So does anyone know the manufacturer?

I will post a picture when it gets into my e-mail from my phone.

Thanks.
