Item Description: Translate description
serial #2755, 16 ga (2 3/4'') over 8x57JR, 26 3/4'' Kruppstahl barrels choked full and a tight improved modified with bright very good plus to very fine bores showing a little mild oxidation, the chambers lengthened to 2 3/4'' and the rifle barrel with strong rifling. This ''Merco''-branded drilling shows Carl Grundig of Dresden barrel markings, the barrels retaining perhaps 60% original blue toning to deep gray and showing some scattered light handling marks. The action is mostly a pleasant silvery case-hardened patina with generous vibrant colors in the protected areas and full coverage embellishments of tight filigree scrollwork and floral bouquets. The horn triggerguard is rather peculiar being quite thick and bulbous at the front and features a full frontstrap, it rates very good plus with some subtle crackling and a flake forming along the right edge. The checkered capped pistolgrip walnut buttstock and forend rate about very good with 1 1/2'' cracks along both stock cheeks, scattered dings and light handling marks. Stock features small horn diamonds behind cheeks, horn pistolgrip cap, left-side Germanic cheekpiece and a replacement black plastic buttplate providing a 13 5/8'' length-of-pull. The drilling is equipped with European sling swivels, Greener safety, cocking indicator pins, and tang barrel selector that automatically flips up the rear sight when rifle is selected. The barrels lock-up solid and on-face via dual under-bites, Greener crossbolt, and sideclips. The action seems to function normally with the rear trigger being the set for the rifle. The rib is equipped with claw mount bases and a set of more modern gunsmith-made rings is included. (13B11757-107) {C&R} (1000/1500)
