unknown to me double
      #15324 - 30/05/04 09:08 AM

I am going to see a double that
is for sale. It is a BSW in 8x57JR.
The pictures looked great. I have
no knowledge of this maker does
anyone know? He thinks the gun was
made in 1933. That is all I know
for now. Any info would be helpful.

Thanks in advance.

A beautiful rifle. I dont understand
the claw mount. It has the standard
at the front and the rear is a single
which is outboard the left barrel at
at the rear. Horn trigger guard,with
a cartridge trap in the butt plate.
The case is in good condition,and is
not partitioned for a scope.

I think BSW means: ""Berlin Suhler Waffen- und Fahrzeugwerke" (BSW)". The firm was located in the former East-Germany (DDR). In 1934 they added "Simson & Co " to the name.

This double will follow me
home tomorrow. I still do
not understand the claw mount.
Any one have any thoughts about
this set up I would like to hear
from them.
Thanks
