Ethan-

Welcome to the site.
Great looking rifle too.
Are you perfectly sure that the rear trigger is not a single set trigger, but adjusted 'out' and with the screw replaced with a headless pin? One of those images appears to me to show a blacked pin on the rear trigger.

The reason I ask is that there's a German clam shell action 9.3 SxS that I have the opportunity to handle and care for, as well as shoot quite a bit. It has set triggers front and rear, although I have not fired it with either triger set.
I have tested and adjusted them, but have not felt the need to fire the rifle with the set triggers.
I know of someone who has though, and he foolishly did this the very first time he fired the rifle, also the first time he ever fired a 9.3x74 - or any double rifle for that matter.
He strummed both triggers and doubled the rifle.
Didn't hurt himself or the rifle, but that was all he wanted with it, hasn't picked it up since.

Also, you might want to get that little hairline crack at the left head of the stock checked by someone with the right goods for the job.
It'd be a shame to have that take off and cause more damage than it should.

As I often hear said on these nice European rifles, you should judge the rifle, not the name on the rib.
Many of these now seemingly obscure German, Austrian, Belgian, etc guns and rifles are perfectly on par in terms of fit and finish, materials, and function as some of the top London product.
That's one very nice looking rifle!
It's loaded with special features, scalloped action, cocking indicators, that ultra strong locking system, very nice sights, the QD scope and mounts, ejectors, cool features with the wood, very nice engraving...

Have you hunted with it yet?
