Punches

They are the punches of the bench of tests of Liege, whose significance is taken again better below:

Peron: inspection, of use of 1853 until today.

Choke 13.9 and 13.8 (subject to good reading): chokes guns: cal to 22 cm of the cylinder head, of use of 1924 to 1968.

29-56 in large C (subject to good reading) gauges nominal and length of the casing, of use of 1924 until todays.

Small letter G: yearly letter of 1928.

Manufacturer

The mention ACIER COCKERIL indicates in which steel the guns are manufactured. It acts of a trade mark by iron and steel company COCKERIL of OUGREE-LIEGE. The "Manufacture d’Armes à Feu liégeoise" used this steel almost exclusively but its mark is not reproduced on the weapon.

Marking "LD": The only arms manufacturer corresponding in activity in 1928 would be Lambert DUMOULIN street of Bassenge, 2 in Liege credit of 1920 to 1965.

I then however to be completely affirmative.
