I found and bought a sleeper double rifle in .35 Winchester

Sorry but I have no camera to upload pictures, and even if I had such a camera, I have no idea how to do anything with digital pictures. However, I feel compelled to at least tell about my recent acquisition, especially since a search showed no other double rifles on this site from this maker, and his name mentioned only once on this site too. It was obviously a sleeper at Cabelas, where I found it. It was made by Paul Scholberg of Leige, Belgium, who made guns/rifles from 1910 to 1932. It is of Best Quality, with Chopper lump barrels, Sidelock, intercepting sears, front articulated trigger, wonderfully fine game scene engraved over 90% of action. German claw mounts on quarter rib, with Hensoldt scope and express iron sights, in .35 Winchester caliber, with chambers and bores in excellent condition. Greener crossbolt, along with Purdey underbolt, tight as new, all original; not fooled with. Cabelas, in advertising, said nothing about chopper lump barrels, about intercepting sears, about articulated trigger, etc., probably because they knew nothing about such odd strange things-----LOL. I gave just over $4000., quite a good buy.
