Thanks for the education on the W Crown mark.
The marks on the flats are all original save the changes to the 16/70.
No S Crown existed, on the flats.
I looked at old pics it was about 1" up the barrels.
Theses have been cut off.
The gun was re proved by the smith, the loads were provided by a commercial ammo supplier.
I am not up on European proof laws, but trust the smith to have done it right.

Thanks Nitro.

Finally Done it is on its way HOME.
Slight difference between the 50 year old metal and the new stuff, he tried very hard to hide it.

I shot her since I got her back.



The top group 4 shots, scope at 38 yards. (Sitting) 2" wide no vert, R 3 shots in 1".

Bottom group 4 shots irons, leaning against tree, 32 yards 2" x 2"

I need to move the bottom group up it was a little low, will put higher rear sight in.
