Hello. I'm investigating an old Sauer & Sohn double rifle, and I'm courious what information you can dig up.
Pictures will be added when I have time.
The rifle is a side by side sidelock with hammers and a underlever (opens sideways).
The s/n is 30xxx, which I believe place it back to 1885-86. The flats on the barrel has two different large crowns on the left side, and have a quite large "wild man with club" .
It's also stamped Sauer, Suhl, GUSS ST. , a small crown with sss below, and last a single small eagle. The barrels has in addition two small and one a bit larger wild man, and also some numbers which is not the serial number. One of them are 5794. If this is a year stamp, it would disagree with the S/n... what do you think?
Also I have tried to find pictures oc similar rifles, but with no luck. How uncommon is this rifle?
