Another virtually unbreakable working rifle!
Very, very nice indeed, much prefer a double like this than a 'show pony'!
Lucky fellow who gets this one delivered to his door

See my comments on the other Geco / Ernst Kerner dr http://forums.nitroexpress.com/showflat....;gonew=1#UNREAD
Look at the proofmarks and the service load given there as StmG / weight in gramm. If 16 g = 250 gr, if 19 g = 300 gr.

Happy to see the rifle with you. Is it shooting ok? The rifling was not very good but the action was strong and in good shape.
