BONNET M.

Here a traditional shotgun juxtaposed for cartridges with pin with Lefaucheux key punched in Saint-Etienne between 1856 and 1869. The gauge could be of the 20.

One can read Bonnet M but we could not attach it to an arms manufacturer with Maule. Maule is a small town in Yvelines (17 km2, less than 6,000 inhabitants).

There is still an inscription on other platinum but it is illegible. Perhaps that while passing a chalk above, one could see more.

We did not find the significance of figure 48 either.
