In post #279435 it was stated that: "Wenisch begins advertising as H. Roedl's successor. My 1st guess was that Josef Wenisch was the son-in-law of H. Rdl but haven't found anything of the like." It also has picture of names on barrel.
I have a drilling with same names in gold as pictured. It is in very good condition showing only minor handling marks. Checkering still sharp. Question, would like more info on this drilling, including date of man. It has 172/28 on bottom of rifle barrel. Would this be the date (172 day of 1928). Also approx. value. It is 16x16/8x58Rmm Sauer. I have owned approx. 22 years and only shot one box of 16 (shot great) and never shot rifle even thou I do have other gun in 8x58Sauer that I do shoot. Rifle is only marked 8.1, but previous owner gave me ammo that he said was used. His cases were made from 303 brit. I make mine from 32-40 ( 1/8" short but easy for me to make).
Have pictures, but being new to this forum, don't know how to post. Thank You wknitro
