Anthony:

I don't see anything just yet. The "Crown" over "S" is the German proof mark noting the tube is destined for shot as a load at double the service/standard load in the first proof while the Imperial Eagle/Proof Eagle- Beschussadler neuer art(grazing animal) notes the tube has experienced threefold the normal charge. I don't think the amount was changed in the 1912 rules.

Jager:

I believe you to be spot on that it is a double rifle action by Sauer & Sohn.

Kind Regards,
