Wow, a 24 gauge!!
Dismount the barrels and either take a pic of the various marks thus revealed or describe them meticulously. That will give a better idea of what you have. French guns are a world of their own, but there are some real gems around. BTW, 24 gauge ammo and components are available from Ballistic Products and others, maybe Gamebore. Good Luck!! |

I'm guessing it's G. Morian from what little I've found. One short post about a shotgun said they were probably mostly made in Belgium, but listed no other info or sources. Another post about a Morian tri-bore had pics of a very nice shotgun that the owner uses.
I can't decide if Morian made things, or was simply a retailer. Mostly what I've found are references to really nice sword canes. This one is $600. http://www.battermans.com/firearms-g...bamboo-35.html I forgot to add the link to the tri-bore. Scroll down to the only two pics on the page. http://www.doublegunshop.com/forums/...=171049&page=1 Last edited by johnbt; January 19, 2011 at 09:36 AM. |

I really need to cut this out and get back to work.
http://www.proxibid.com/asp/Catalog....catalog&sort=0 Lot 261 (there is a pic) Sold for $1800 "A high art, gold inlaid DA pocket size cartridge revolver, circa 1870’s-early 1890’s, approx. .32 cal., CF, double action hammerless with 1 1/2” barrel only 5 1/4” overall, blued finish, pearl grips, top of frame inlaid “G Morain B.te 36 Avenue de L’Opera, Paris” with old chamois-type purse holster, #2 visible on trigger. The revolver remains in fine to near excellent condition with approx. 85%-95% original blue just starting to drift and tone; near excellent grips; sharp markings, crisp overall showing little to no use and just some natural aging. The action is crisp; interior near excellent. The revolver is profusely gold inlaid in geometric motifs. The felt lined chamois-type purse holster is a generic type and not a perfect fit but appears to have been carried with this gun a long time and the holster is in good condition. Est.: $1,000-$2,000." |
