It typically is a pin but on German guns it is a screw and shows the lower scear.

Too, if an upper screw is present, the upper would be an overhanging scear coupled with a typical lower(Sicherheitsfangstangen??) intercepting scear? But come to find out, many times this arrangement, like a sidelock, if faked to give an appearance of an upper rung offering.

Too, one can see the automatic safety.

>>Lindner Daly atop with overhanging and lower intercepting scears. No, I didn't monkey up the screws.

Gustloff/BSW below with just overhanging.<<

The Gustloff with just the overhanging is the post WWI German workhorse platform being a Kerner-Anson design.

>>H. Scherping fitted with the cream of the crop Witten Excelsior tubes for a client/retailer George M. Wright of Danville, Ill. I'm sure a diagram is around here somewhere, but does anyone have a diagram or image of the centre mounted scear at their fingertips, which is seen more on a double rifle platform????<<

Yes the scherping is same platform as some of the others guns I was talking about looks to be similar action with similar screw orientation. Thanks I will get interior pics this time when it’s torn down. After paying for screws to be welded up and engraved I don’t Monkey with them much anymore.

Now this is not a centre mounted scear but a lower intercepting.



This appears to be a centre mounted scear. I haven't found an image of the internals on this grande complication.

Thanks it should be same action as the other suhl 16 I posted a while back with the pineapple looking engraving.
I believe this engraving will be quite a bit better than the poor quality pics show. If all is tight I will be happy to restore this one.
I thought it deserved saving with all the extras. Will make nice hunting gun for someone next 100yrs. Thanks again

Gun came in yesterday, k’s in rhombus so Raimey has better eye sight than me again. Engraving was much better than poor photos, couple screws will need to be fixed, wood and horn guard much better than photos but bad news was cocking lug broken on forend which will set me back a tad $. Shouldn’t be to bad. Looks like a higher end German working gun. New term I learned from a friend here. Here are some pics.thanks

Pleasure us with a pic of the standing breech? Too, with the Greener Crossbolt, side clips & 1/2 side frame reinforcement, it was designed for a stout load to dispatch something?
