I have an old 20 Gauge Shotgun I need help Identifying. Its marked ROBUST #222 on bottom, Right side is Marked MANUFRANCE-SAINT-ETIENNE, Left Side is marked FUSIL ROBUST BREVETE S G D G. Any Ideas on what this is? Its missing all of the stock and I would like to replace and make a Wall Hanger out of this. Will any other models fit this gun. Appreciate any help anybody can give.:confused:

Well man Mas or manufacture d armes d saint etienne is very well known and famous arms producer, like mas ww2 rifle series, it also made, FAMAS assault
rifle (fusil automatique manufacturre d armes d saint etienne) which was and is currently used with the French army and French foreign legion (Legion Etrengere)
and there is also MAB manufacturre d armes d Bayonne. both are very old and known and especially MAS.
i really can not be sure and know which shotgun that is , but i can tell you that MAS is renomated firearm producer, and i am sure what MAS means.

Not familiar with these, but a Google search shows that the "Manufrance Robust" SxS shotgun was made from 1914 to nineteen eighty something...

Seems like the company may have gone under, which is going to make it hard to find a stock I would think. There is also some speculation that the company didn't build these shotguns themselves, but that they were built under their name for sale in their catalogue (like the JC Higgins/Ted Williams brand for Sears back in the day).
