Texasjack,
your question what happened in 1912:
1912 Einfhrung im April: des Krone + N (Nitro) beim Beschussamt.
that means proofstamp Crown over N (Nitro Proof) was introduced for the first time at the Suhl Proofhouse.
For The Gun: I hold a sister of yours in my hands! A gunmaker in Bochum, Germany built it with original parts he bought from a liquidation in Suhl. I will ask him which maufacturer. Pics of The " Sister" will follow on Monday. Very nice, je made a full stock of nice wood and a sleeve barrel Cal. 30.30 !!!

Texasjack,
Can you show photos of the proofmarks under the barrel,they will likely show caliber and date of proof.
Mike Would seeing those require removal of the forearm wood? (Otherwise I see no markings on the underside of the barrel.)

True the new proof rules(not law) were initiated in Suhl in April but being a bit picky the Z-M proof rules were adopted on September 1st, 1911. I think it was September.
Kind Regards,

Most examples attach the forend iron/wood via a small screw into a spot on the tube.
