Yeah, I have a thought......Nice Find!!! You've found yourself a little gem. Greener Crossbolt and cocking indicators behind the fences, very nice indeed. If the bores are clean, as you stated, you should be able to coax this beauty back into shape with little trouble. The screws don't look too buggered up and the action design looks to be of German origin. The strikers look to be missing, however. A good cleaning up and a thoughout restoration is definitely in order.

Griffin & Howe in Bernardsville, NJ would love to rebuild this classic for you.
