    It could be the name of the original retailer of the rifle.

    Do you have any pics?

    Currently looking for Baikal Makarov pistols with the following prefixes to the serial number: 98, T01, T09, T21, T22
    Prefer boxed or cased but will consider loose examples too.

    Is it like the one in the photo in the link above. Just found out Relum is Muller the importer spelt backwards without the L.

    The name could just have been the original proud owner.

    I think Relum/Telly/Grothaus were all made by FEG in Hungary.

    They were sold as Relum in UK, Grothaus in the Netherlands.

    Its is a Relum or at least an FEG Budapest made gun. There was a second series of double sprung air rifles made by FEG, why is anyone's guess. They are generally a bit nicer than Relums but weird. I have an underlever and a break barrel.

    Grotthaus was a Dutch importer. You occasionally find their trade mark on other FEG built rifles too.
