a cheap and soft Belgium import.....twist, laminated, or damascus barrels made in Belgium in the late 19th century had the most lax proof requirments of any European tubes....as a result, Belgium proofs were not honored in many countries....if your damascus barrels have Belgium proof marks, it is a gun of little value....
