Hello,

My first post here, this is a very nice site. Looks like the place to ask some questions about a drilling.

A friend just picked up a nice German drilling, Gun had been in a same collection for over 50 years. This double exposed hammer drilling is marked "F.W. Kessler, Suhl" on both shotgun barrels, is in 16 X 16 ga X 9.3 X 72R rifle caliber, is about 44 inches long, has 27 inch barrels, is serial numbered 30XXX, weighs about 6 1/2 lbs.

On the top rib between the shotgun barrels it is engraved "Carl Bock Frankfurt, A/M" (the guns original owner?). There are the proof marks under the barrels, can they give it's build date.? See no model markings, any idea of its model.?
Can post some pictures.
Thanks again, olypenn22
