Thanks for giving the food for thought but where would you think a non-typical German rib without the retail's name atop with say 8 linear grooves and football posts have originated? It could be post original sale and altered later as the vent rib really doesn't have the Germanic look. Also most German vent ribs on single trap and pigeon guns had the inverted "T", or post, supports. Anyone have one with the "football" supports?

Single triggers with "O" & "U" on the selector just about had to be installed here or were sourced from the U.S. of A. and for now it seems that the effort on non-typical German ribs with inletting/dove-tailing in the top tube had to be executed here in the U.S. of A. also.

Kind Regards,

Raimey
