I recently inherited a rifle that i have no history on. I do not even know the caliber. I have been unable to find anything on the web on this one. It has the following markings on it. "Leavell Lumter" , "Made In Belgium" , "65 X 68 S" , "B.Blindee" , "P.V." , "2375". It also has about 6 varios symbols stamped on the underside, near the trigger guard. It is a bolt action rifle. It has a very odd looking safety switch. Does anyone have any suggestions on where i could find more information on this gun?

No, that's not it. I will take some pictures of it tonight. The symbols may mean something to someone. Any idea what or who is "Leavell Lumter"? It is stamped in a cross between Italic and cursive.
