To the Slugs: 2-piper is right with the so called rifled slugs, they are for smooth-bore. I mean you can shoot the Brenneke 16/70 Classic, but I'm not sure if it is the same as in Germany. So I just sent a question to Brenneke here in Germany. Will let you know, what they answer.

To the D.R.P. again, DRP is a Reichspatent (Patent of German Reich) in each case, but I don't know exactly if for the soft solder or for the Merkel "Bock" (means O/U which was invented by Merkel)

Best Regards,
