Absolutely love it! To me any platform that offers more than one option is worth more than one safari grade custom anything designed for single purpose. Money be damn. I see endless possibilities with what you have in the hand. Mountain man
That's a beautiful antique firearm, wood and steel. It must not have been easy to find that brass for the rifle? The date range would have been a difficult time in Germany, WWI and treaty restrictions plus economic problems. I'm thinking this was probably a firearm for the wealthy.
This gun is 16 gauge, but likely it is chambered for the 2 1/2" shell. I would not shoot modern 2 3/4" 16 gauge shells in it. Get some RST shells in the proper length.
@2009Berghof I thought about that but then I thought if I die someday and one of the kids or grand kids was to get it and not know I want to make sure it will shoot 2 3/4 to be safe
