Help! Victor Collette Liege VC 14 - The Firearms Forum

Hi.

Have a gun that is passed down through several generations now.
I know very little about the gun, when and where it comes from, etc.
Have searched some online but found very little ...
What I know about the gun so far is that it is most likely work, it has the familiar oval circle with letters "L.E.G" within and without the crown on top. And "VC 14" about 1 cm from the circle. Both of these are on the run.
Also stamped / written Liege Victor Collette on the shaft.
Would have been interesting if anyone here knows more aboute this, everything from time and place for the possible value?

Don't know if this will be much help, but it does establish that Collette was a well respected name in Belgian gunmaking.
