FWIW, I don't think that gun is "old"; it appears to be a modern, Post-WWII, utilitarian grade gun, not a commemorative or of any special quality. It is chambered for 7cm (2 3/4") shells; the barrels are of nickel-chrome steel and have current French proof marks.

I would consider it a good hunting gun, but not antique or collectible.
