It may have an English name or english sounding name as a lot of english guns were made in belgium and proofed in birmingham. they're still belgian. They were then exported to the U.S. as "British". The "markings" are damascus twist,(go here for more info http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dfg2hmx7_8gmzs6hck ) those may have a bit of a crollel look to them, so they are a better grade of twist, but the belgians were very creative about their knock offs. think Japan electronics in the 50's and 60's. The belgians even went as far as "stealing" names of fine english makers like W.C. Scott and W. Scott, hell I've seen belgian " Parker Bros" yeah right. I'll still put my money on it being belgian. Keep in mind that not all belgian guns are crap, just the knock offs.
