I think it's French.
I remember reading an article years ago about French gun laws. Apparently single-shot .22 are/were able to be bought and sold without any form of licence and were therefore popular for defensive purposes (when nothing else is available) Apparently single shot .22 copies of various autos and revolvers were very popular because if you had to point it at someone, they would believe they were facing a "real" gun.
