I hope someone here can help as I have one I'd like to date as well. From what I've been able to learn from browsing is that there doesn't seem to be any records. By the way these are manufacured by Fabrique National in Herstal. The model is the Trombone due to the slide action. Invented by John M. Browning.

Rough estimate is late 1920's.
