heres a picture of the .32 rf's and my .32 belgian.
i think its a Marlin 1891 (or maybe transition from 1891 to 1892, stevens favorite 1894, H&A XL Double action .32 rf long, Defender .32 long, and .32 belgain.

and heres one with my old shotguns, a W.M Moore 10ga SxS, H. Pieper 12ga SxS, Marlin 17-S 12ga, old Janssen & Sons SxS 12ga wich has been chopped ( yes, it is still non-rest. length. it is a blast to shoot however it is missing the left side hammer & firing pin so its single shot), and a W. F. Parkhurst SxS 24gauge project gun, need a new stock.

I got this Belgian made fake Remington rolling block double in .455 from the young brothers on gunbroker it's not all that pretty but
there retiring and not bringing anymore guns in from south America so i figured it was my last chance to get one

I love the looks of that gun! how are the bores, and hows the lockup and mechanical condition? I'd buy that bad boy off you in a second if the price was right...
