Stalking rifle? It's a falling block but stocked like a sporter, not sure of the caliber, didn't get a close enough look.


Barrel address looks like
A. LOESCHE, HOFBUCHSENMACHER, MAGDEBURG.

The top of the receiver has
LOESCHES PANZERBUCHSE. PANZERBUCHSE translates, according to Wikipedia, as Tank Hunting rifle. Big Game?-- Tank-- Panzer: Auf Deutsch - following WW1- specifically Col. General (General Oberst) Heinz Guedarian-- 1934 " Die Panzer in Kreig"-- Busche- generic term for guns-- (this is my rifle, this is my gun) a rifle would be Gewehr-- Hunting- Jagd-- or Hunter Jaeger--
The other gentleman has is more to the point- forget Wiki=Pedia and consider this to be a "Extra Proof Gun" as a perhaps more accurate literal translation. RWTF

Neat rear sight.

Grip safety?
