  Check out the FAQ on posting photos. Those are critical to any ID process. The key element of posting pictures here is to FIRST save them to a photo hosting site, such as Photobucket.com. Then all you do is list the "http://" line of reference here in your text.

  One of the Italian proof marks will be a coded date. Since Angel Zoli went out of business over 20 years ago, shouldn't be a problem figuring out which Zoli made your gun.
  
  EDIT #1, Need quality close-ups of the proof marks, or a specific description of them.
  
  EDIT #2, The Italian coded proof date would be in the format of two side by side capitol letters, sometimes enclosed in a square.

  Or, do a SEARCH on this forum for "Zoli" (see link at top of this page).

  Under the barrels it has a drawn bow with Antonio Zoli stamped in it and the words CAM 76.. There are also 3 stars with circles areound them

  still not sure of location of proof mark but when you take the barrels off, on the underside of them it has the capitol letters PSF above the Antonio Zoli drawn bow mark. Also in the sroll / engraving work on the underside of the receiver are the words EAGLE ARMS NY NY with what appears to be a jousting type helmet in a shield?
