why are german made guns not as popular as guns made elsewhere?
with the exception of some of the late east german made guns, all that have passed thru my hands are of fine quality in all respects...
the pre ww1 guns are especially nice.
Germans make very good guns....
Notable makers of Magnum 98 are: Mauser, Johannsen, Heym and if you're really rich Hartmann & Weiss or Prechtl.
Although there are two top shotgun makers in Germany when it comes to those most well to do go shopping to: England, Italy, Belgium or Spain.
When it comes to old shotguns with few exceptions many have cheek pieces, swivels, extra bolting making them ugly and tight chokes and often the bores designed to take shot and ball or slug.
