gun number 6036
0,70" and NITRO PROOFED, the gun was maybe changed for center fire priming by using short firing pins instead of the long needles. the Randschlussspiegel case was available with common center fire primer in 1904 by RMS Sömmerda. in any case this gun was not build for common Lancaster shot shells when new but its also so possible it was rechambered for such a cartridge like the 0,74" with 14ga chamber in my neighborhood.

"Gun retains a pleasing patina overall with most of the original damascus pattern still nice and crisp. Silver lettering on the barrel and inlays on the sides of the receiver are all present. Nitro proofed. Horn trigger guard is complete. Bores have a few very minor pits. Good working order. There is a very old repair to the toe of the stock. Barrels are roughly 29 inches long. Stock is fine with a minor crack under the opening lever and some minor dings. Engraving is sharp on all parts. This is a beautiful older gun. This gun was originally a needle fire that was converted to be used with standard center fire catridges. Made in Germany. Please see pictures. Serial number is 6036"
