What are the differences between these two ( pre war) models besides weight?

XVII is a souped up Modell XIV & Krupp Spezial Weapons Grade Steel.
XXIX(A) is a Taubenflinten or Pigeon Gun w/ longer & beefier Modell XVIII action. C & S are not considered & more complex.

What do " C & S" refer to? Does the XXIX also have the XVIi special steel?
Thank you!

Modell XXIX(C) & Modell XXIX(S) would have Krupp's Spezial Weapons Grade Steel being also chopperlump and having upper & lower scears. Yes, XVII & XXIX(C) & XXIX(S) could all wear Krupp's Spezial Weapons Grade Steel.

What do the "C" & " S" versions of the model XXIX refer to?
C = chopper lump ?
S = additional safety sear?
Thanks!

I'm not sure as that is above my pay grade but I'll look into it. I would hazard a guess C - Chopperlump & S - Spezial being the very best Pigeon gun one could purchase. The S may have had something like a Westley Richard's doll's head extension.

 The above is purported to be an advert of the S&S Modell Nr. XXIX(C). Cheers, Raimey rse

After flipping thru a S&S catalogue, it would appear that the Modell XXIX(S) may have changed. In this particular catalogue the images of the S&S Modell XXIX(S) is actually a Selbstspanner Taubenflinte(Seitenschlossen) or Sidelock Pigeon gun so the S would denote Seitenschlossen?
