Otto Bock was the retailer. Raimey (ellenbr) may know the craftsmen that built the gun.

Seeing it was proofed at the Zella-Mehlis facility & was sourced from that area, the V just might be for one of the Voigt Boys. It is highly possible that Otto Bock could have placed an order with C. Voigt Waffenversand Mehlis and he in turned sourced his relatives.

I'm going to find the Otto Bock eagle egg collecting story and attempt to sum it up on this recent Otto Bock thread:

'Set Triggers' perhaps from the looks of the small adj screws in them..?
Not unusual on a German or Austrian double rifle but an extra none the less.

Nice rifle. A strip down, clean and check for any needed repairs to metal or wood as necessary to preserve it and make shootable would be the least I'd do.
Preserve from further damage from any rust action.
A new trigger guard of horn to replace the missing original.
Take it out and shoot it.
