Mauser 87 rifle

Has anyone ever seen anything similar?

Undoubtably the finest and most highly engraved, deep chiseled and gold inlaid Mauser in existence.

Wow, that's a heck of a lot of inlay work. I have seen others with similar adornment but can't say any of them were other Model 87s. Seems to me that I've seen that particular Model 87 somewhere else but at the moment I can't remember where.

That is quite the selection of Holland & Holland DRs that the JamesEdition is selling as well.

It's interesting that the single trigger looks very much like the front trigger of the double set trigger set used on Oberndorf Model 98 sporting rifles. I wonder if this rifle was originally equipped with double set triggers which at some point were converted to a single trigger.
