JJsDad Posted December 28, 2019 Report Share Posted December 28, 2019 (edited) Panoma1 got it in one. Second mark from the right is the 1924 to present day, Beligian proof mark for foreign weapons. As Belgium is a member of the CIP (Proof Commision) Belgian proof marks are perfectly acceptable in the UK and vice-versa.
