This one is a crapper, but believe it or not all German shotguns are this bad. Few days ago I have examined 20ga SLE ejector (unfortunately with Greener x-bolt) from Merkel of Suhl. From once dipped in oil drum wood finish I would say it was made in 1980s and imported by GSI. Nice trim gun with quality engraving signed by Thomar. Decent work too bad game scenes are pure chaos with just bunch of critters carved into the plates.
