George:

Along with a chamber cast and a slug from the bore will reveal which variant of the 8.15X46R cartridge the German set trigger rifle is. It looks to have been proofed/proved in June 1927. There are a few marks to the right of the caliber, date and house number which I can't really see and might reveal the maker. I'm curious, what screws did you have to turn to remove the wood? Any idea what your friend is asking for the rifle?

Kind Regards,
