Can anyone help me? I have come into possession of a engraved 12ga SxS Acier Cockerill shotgun. Both barrels are damaged and need to be replaced. The side of the barrels are marked Industria Pietero Zanolfiti-Gardone VT (BS) Italy. Dose anyone know if the company still in busness or is there gunsmith in the US who repairs these shotguns?

Thank You
Charlie
 
Found this on shotgunworld.

Acier is the French word for "steel". Cockerill is or was a large Belgian manufacturer of steel. Cockerill steel was popular for use in gun barrels, and many European manufacturers used them. Acier Cockerill barrels were used by hundreds of different gun makers, from large producers to small shops making "guild guns".
