this is just a first impression and we don't have enough data till now. I think for a small firm like Schüler this are a lot of guns, maybe 585 a year are to much. in the 1920s in special all had very bad times. I don't know what Schüler did 1914 -18.
other firms in this size like Collath make things like signal flare pistols and it seems they stampp it with the own SN so the post war sporting guns have a very high number without connection to the pre war years .
Schüler make the Reform pistol and the unique "Scheintod" pistol





and its possible that this little pistols are part of the serial numbers.

think about this its more realistic for a firm the size of Schüler/Suhl to look now only on the rifles SN 26190 made in june 1934 to 28236 made in december 1943.
Schüler was not a big gun factory so a little bit over 2000 guns in 9 years would be right in my opinion.
this makes 220 guns a year and this is a lot. you find different schüler guns on the market but its not they are behind every corner. in the 220 guns a year there may have been other things in this numbers like the Scheintodpistole.
I search about Dreyse and this was a real factory and around 1880 they make 1000 guns a year. The Peterlongo rifle with the 11xxx SN have a Ferlach proof. it could be that this a Peterlongo SN maybe because Pertlongo only get the parts from Suhl and screw it together for whatever import regulations and to save some customs payment.
well, I have no doubt that this rifle was made in Suhl, everything speaks for this. but I think if it was build together in Suhl finally it have to get a proof there.

Maybe some day we'll have more examples.
