The barrel on a 1903 M-S 6.5mm carbine of mine is marked "A. KLESZCZEW, Berlin W8" The rifle of course has both Austrian and German proofmarks. Also, it has finer checkering (with borders) and better wood than most I have seen. I note that on the internet several drillings and shotguns are mentioned as being marked with this same stamp. I assume this was an importer/retail (wholesale?) store in Berlin. Does anyone have more information on KLESZCZEW?....dates of operation, ownership, perhaps a catalogue, whatever, etc? |
