They may have been an evolutionary dead end in the firearms world, but you can help but admire the workmanship

I won an auction in denmark "20 ga" needle fire doublegun made by Sauer&Sohn in the 1860s



















will be maybe 3 month until I have the gun in my hands because of this import -export problem. not the first S&S needle fire double I see, imho a copy of the early Teschner gun.

there was another "16/65"in auction but don't find a buyer. I would say this is also an early needle fire double but later changed for the 16 ga center fire cartridge.
