Raimey.When in doubt about computer things, I generally ask my son.
He explained the difference between the IMG address and the Photobucket address.I've done some test postings and I should be able to attach future pictures with my reply. The drilling was made in March 1938 and was originally in 7X57R with two separate stamts for this caliber. No stamp for the 7X75R rechamber. So there is no way to know if it was pre or post war
Kuduae.Thank you for your imput.A local German rifle collector also commented on the lack of engraving on the barrel lumps despite going to the work of putting a gold band around the breach. He also felt that the rifle may have not been finished due to a premature separation from its gun shop.Do you think that Gebruder Heym would have been making rifles like this one in 1944-1945 or is it more likely that it is an older rifle that was rebarreled in 1945?
