Yes, Manton sold a few double rifles that were bought in from Germany, mostly from FW Heym. These were not up to the quality standards of the British built rifles that Manton sold (handle one sometime) and the catalog prices reflected that. It's true that Jeffery was a retailer like Manton, but their DRs were British products, never German.

What the British did with the Mauser was a hell of a lot more than cosmetic.
