Nice old gun.

The "SHUF" marks on the shotgun barrels are a mystery to me; possibly barrel mfg. marks. The crown with the S&S, is the early Sauer proof mark. The "caveman with the club" is the Sauer trademark. My favorite is the little scripted "g" on the watertable near the breech face; that's the mark of the craftsman at the factorty who finished the action. If the stock has not been refinished, you should find a similar but different initial on the buttstock-nestled-in where the pistolgrip and the underline of the stock coming from the toe intersect; that will be the stockers mark.

It would be fun to know who those people were, Sauer had some of the best. Good shooting.
