OP country boy Boxlock Joined: Jan 2013 Posts: 1	I have an unfinished Kerner drilling. 16 over 7x57. I know it has a build date of 5/42vand all the serial numbers match. It came to the U.S. in 1947 and is plain. No etching or front site and I can't find a value. Any help would be appreciated.

Interesting that the pins protrude thru the bulky part of the frame. And if you have ever wondered about how many components are in the action of a K-A drilling, here's your chance to sum them up. Note script L near forend lug. Kind Regards, Raimey rse

There was Emil Kerner and Sons;his son Ernst Kerner(a Meffert son-in-law that sometimes used Meffert parts); and Emil's grandson Helmut(Ernst's son)who was an apprentice in 1938 and may have been working by 42. Helmut was a friend and I would be very interested to find out if it was his or his fathers. Mike
