"ELG" is the Liege (Belgium) proof mark.

If this is a typical "Bulldog" or other vastly-produced Liege firearm, chances are you'll never identify the maker, because these were made by small shops, anonymously. Some were made in small shops from pieces parts made in even smaller shops.

A picture would help.

Regards,

Walt
PS There is a great new book on the subject of Bulldogs (which yours sounds like).
