    Something very unusual came along

    As the title suggests, I have had a very unusual one come along. Has anyone ever seen a double barrel shotgun with rolling block action, Belgian made and very similar design to an earl Belgian Police pistol

    I have some part made ammo with that was made from 32/20 cases, loaded with black powder and shot.

    It’s a little honey and worthy of a little light restoration and remake or the forewood.

    Here is a link to the similar pistol version.

    Hunt safe, look after the bush & plug more pests. The greatest invention in the history of man is beer.

    A bit more bang is better.

    That got my attention. What a beauty. Definitely would be a nice light resto candidate.

    I have seen one similar many years ago which had two .22 barrels. It was cheaply made and literally falling to pieces.

    Yep I know what you mean, I saw a lot of old Belgian stuff when I lived in the UK, much of it very poorly made

    From what I can see it definitely a rolling block and identical to this pistol. Ian of forgotten weapons talks of the makers possibly getting permission from Remington to use the rolling block design
