    Yes it is a Belgium copy they made them for British military contracts (V.R. marked) and for other countries. It was made in 1867 but not sure when it entered Japan. I might take it out of the stock and see if there is more info underneath. Japan did a lot of trade with Belgium but during that time everyone was trying to make money on selling Japan arms. Their was a lot of trading companies moving arms.

    Thank you very much. I believe this was used in the Boshin War and now possibly the Satsuma Rebellion. The lock is dated 1867 but not sure when it came to Japan.

    I may have posted this in the wrong place so I will post here. Trying to get this translated. This is stamped on an 1853 Enfield barrel. Is there anyone that can help? Fred
