My Diamond Grade safetyless pigeon gun, owned by John Phillip Sousa, is number 685, four numbers later than the Morphy gun.

I was doing some reading & stumbled across the following:

>>No. VKS(Modell Nr. 1906) Doppelflinte wie No. V aber mit Läufen aus Krupp'schen Spezial - Gewehrlaufstahl amtlich mit ranchlosen Pulver beschossen.<<

So if a Modell No. V Sauer hammergun wears Krupp'schen Spezial - Gewehrlaufstahl(mit 3 Ringen) then it is a Modell No. VKS.

This also applies to the Sauer Modell Nr. I & II - IKS & IIKS.

By they way the Modells III & IV were cape guns or Biks, with the Nr. IV having 2 sets of tubes:

>>IV(Modell Nr. 1906) Büchsflinte mit Doppelflinten - Wechselläufen, wie No. III gearbeitet.....<<



Cheers,

I would assume that the >>KS<< denotes Krupp'schen Spezial - Gewehrlaufstahl(mit 3 Ringen). So
K - Krupp
S - Stahl? or Spezial?????

Anyway, light choke had an additional fee of 5 Marks and heavy choke warranted a price hike of 10 Marks. Sauer evidently worked w/ the Berlin - Halensee Institute(darstellt)?-(there was a shooting Competition nearby also) to devise shot patterns in the 75cm ring. This effort is noted by either the Large or Small Crowns, with one being shooting performance & the other quality. The Shooting Performance Crown resulted in a surcharge(Mehrpreis) of at least 25 Marks, and more, depending on just how much ammo was used.

Cheers,
