Didn't know Ziess ever made shotguns. They make decidedly nice binoculars...Geo

Never heard of Zeiss shotguns; are you sure?

I'd bet it was prolly made by another for Ziess, but I don't know.
I looked at that HammerGun on their site
Did Carl make guns?
I have a few pairs of the old brass framed bin'os though, ..must be from WW1 ? they still work great

For what it's worth, that gun has been there at least three years as I've looked at it in the past in person when traveling through Scottsdale. Nothing negative to report, just not into Germanic design, so perhaps there might be some room to bargain.

And, unless it's a typo, the optics comapny is Zeiss, not Ziess.

Noticed makers Hartmann and Weiss in a Raimey post. Could Weiss have tried it on his own?
