I was at the Antique Arms Show in Las Vegas just before it was closed down by the near Biblical Plague and found a very nice German under lever hammer gun in 16 gauge with Damascus (?type) barrels. The engraving is very well executed with Gottlob Wilcke in one banner and Stuttgart in another. The rib has inlayed " G. Wilcke.Knigl.HofBchsenmacher. Stutgart. The barrel flats and water table have absolutely no proofs, serial numbers, date stamps with only G. Wilcke on the water table. So made and sold prior to 1892 proof law. I cannot find any information on this maker or who might have done the engraving but surely work at this level must have left some bread crumbs somewhere??
