Hi all, I just happened to see this and it really caught my eye. What's your opinion on this one? Sure looks like a quality piece to me. Then again, I'm no German gun expert. http://www.gunsinternational.com/F-W-Hey...un_id=100125692All the best! Greg

Very high quality gun with lovely piece of walnut. It is highly unlikely that 70mm chambers are Suhl shop original.

I'm pretty sure that is Wetzlaub & Jadg, http://www.gravuren-amthor.de/amthor/fro...ulnd5u670o64ho0 , type engraving with Jadg being the game scene on the sideplates of the A&D boxlock. Being devoid of sling swivels and name and steel type names on the case placard, I would guess it was an export sporting arm and possible for the U.S. of A., but it still has cocking indicators which may not be noticed. If so, there is a pretty good probability that the chambers are 70mm and I would ask for a image of the flats and of the ejector/extractor. Kind Regards, Raimey rse

It's definitely an attractive piece, and in high condition to boot.
