its easy to see that this Heinrich Barella 16 ga gun is just a modification of the Berger action

http://sportingclassicsdaily.com/issue/n...auction-company

"Rock Island Auction Company offered this ornate, deep-relief engraved and gold inlaid Barella double-barrel shotgun (Serial # 1539) at their sale this past weekend.

It’s a beautiful example of a needle fire shotgun made by Heinrich Barella of Magdenburg, Germany, who, at 24, attained the level of Master Gunmaker.

The 16-gauge has a 30 ¾-inch solid rib Damascus barrel, brown case-hardened finish and walnut stocks. It’s expected to bring $25,000-$40,000.

In 1844 Barella founded his firm, H. Barella Gewehrfabrik, in Magdeburg, Germany. In the mid 1860s he was a gunmaker to the Prussian Royal Court and by 1871, the Royal Court in Berlin. Barella’s clients included the King of Italy, the King of Romania and the Tsar of Russia.

There are two gold-wire inlaid bands on the muzzles and one on the breech.

The bottom of each barrel, under the forearm, is marked with the serial number “1539.”

The receiver and break-lever are relief-engraved with a floral scroll design, and the rear portion of the forearm depicts a dog flushing a bird on the left side and two deer on the right side.

The shotgun is in fine condition with the barrels retaining 50 percent of the original Damascus finish. The remaining metal surfaces have a smooth gray patina. At some point a protective coating was added to the metal surfaces and there is still some residue remaining in certain areas. Mechanically, it’s in excellent condition.

while this 24 ga double rifle/16 ga double gun by Heinrich Barella is a conventional Fürst Pless gun
