- Lot Description
12 gauge/10.8mm, 27.5" barrels with extractors, S/N 51636. Blued and case hardened finish, checkered pistol-gripped stock with raised cheekrest and checkered forend. Case hardened locks with exposed hammers profusely engraved with delicate flowing floral scrolls and geometric borderlines, marked J.P. SAUER & SOHN SUHL. Fluid steel barrels by Krupp with same Sauer markings. Horn triggerguard, checkered hard rubber butt plate, casehardened and engraved grip cap. Matted top rib with fixed rear sight and blade front sight. Sling swivels. The rifle barrel appears to be chambered for a variant of the 11mm Mauser cartridge (11x60R). Overall a really wonderful German cape gun from the first quarter of the 20th century.
Fine to very fine. Retains much of the blued finish with some thinning and fading, case hardened components retaining some vibrant color with fading and dulling. All markings and engraving crisp and clear. Mechanically functional, fine, bright bores. Wood solid with some minor dings and handling marks. Really a fine cape gun that highlights the best of the German gun maker's art.Condition
