Thanks Mehul,
It is certainly a great example of the craftsmanship that was sold out Heinrich Scherpings esablishment and is certainly the most embelished of my mausers from his shop. I tend to lust over his black powder guns a little more as I believe they were actually built by his hands and the mausers were built after his death in 1913 and the business continued under his name when run by 2 brothers name Johann & Heinrich Eckebrecht who were also Hofbuchsenmachers and I have been told that they advertised in Wild & Hund as late as 1937 although I have not been able to verify that yet. Like Don say's, will have to lose the pad and replace a horn buttplate to match the forend tip, at least when it was padded they did not cut the stock. This Merco set trigger has a plate held in with a screw so that you can swing this plate in behind the rear trigger disabling the set trigger and is the only one of these I have seen. The flag safety has an inlayed gold bar dovetailed into the safety with an S engraved in it which I did not catch in the pictures and the bore is perfect, I can't wait to get some loads worked up and see if it shoots.
