Jansen was a smaller prestigious builder in Belgium and was believed to source barrels and actions from Francotte. This is definitely one of the most diminutive and lightweight guns you could find. This gun was ordered and delivered in the 1950s. It looks to be a 28 made on a 410 action. Care should be exercised on load section and we'd recommend only using 1/2 oz. loads at 1150 fps or less.
