sorry for the bad pics but I hope you can see what it is
this DR was build with a pre war action in the white that Wilke bought from the widow of the gunmaker who made the action in the 1950/60s in Suhl.
the double will be for sale in the near future
the action works like a safe

IMO the style is just perfect for russian buyers with too much money...
Anyway, those makers have been very high skilled artisans.

Rifles with this type of action were made in the early 1900's - see this link:
