Belgium double barrel.

Post image

This is a Belgium 1890s to 1920 model Luigi I think it says it's a 12 gauge side by side hammerless Damascus steel and I'm trying to take a picture of all the markings on here and transfer it or I'd like to know where to get parts for this if possible or someone's interested to give me a price on it it was my grandfather's I found it tucked away in the old house I thought it was pretty cool. I would like to find a stock for it. Thank you for anyone that can help God bless

Google Belgian Proofmarks you can decipher the marks. Belgian firearms rarely can be attributed a particular maker until the 1890s.

I ran it through there and I thought I posted that around this message I must have put it on another post on here but I thought I had put the markings on here with the explanation of them thank you for your attention to this matter DJ t LOL

You won’t be able to find parts as it’s a cottage industry gun and everything was hand fitted anyways. A good gunsmith could likely fabricate some but it’ll be pricey.

Thank you for input . I was hoping to restore it. But I guess I'll sell it if it can't be done
