      Looks like GLK or CLK I don't think any of the above Johann Sigott Belgian sourced sidelock two barrel set has any special tube features but it along with other examples points to the fact that post WWI almost all gunmaking centres were not immune from sourcing the Belgian mechanics at Liege.

Sounds like a good idea but it would seem he only has questions when we are seeking answers.  Johann Sigott Ferlach Belgian sourced A&D Action Body - 1911, Note the Prima Krupp Gewehr Lauf Stahl stamp  Prima Gewehr Lauf Stahl Friedrich Krupp Essen   LLH on tubes  Kind Regards, Raimey rse

By the way, the sidelock above is actually a false-plated A&D Action Body:    Most interesting. Can't take anything for granted Kind Regards, Raimey rse

I researched old Austrian hunting magazines a bit further and it seems that Joh. Sigott of Ferlach advertised his Drall-Rifled-Bohrung from about 1903 till WWI. His early advertisements show only shot pattern, then also a blunt bullet, and finally shot pattern and the Minie type bullet. No rifling type is specified, but maybe, or rather likely, it was modified along the years as well.
With kind regards,
Jani

Thanks Jani for the extra effort. Any images that show the tube configuration we are viewing? A satisfactory number of examples exists that point to the fact that indeed this pattern is his as up till now no other maker's wares have been found with it although I'm sure some exists somewhere.
Kind Regards,

Raimey, no images nor other clue to the magic inside the bore in these advertisements. Sigott's heavy advertising for over a decade doubtlessly produced a fair number of orders so more will likely surface. By the way Sigott's effort seemingly triggered similar advertisements by other Ferlach makers.
With kind regards,
Jani
