Hi Raimey,

I've just taken some extra photos, the muzzle doesn't look that menacing, it just has the same ribbed detailing to the rib between the tubes and a tiny bead sight;

I think I've managed to photograph the load details too;

There are some additional marks on the tang that the forend mounts on which I hadn't noticed before, its like a stylised 'X' on the top face and some numbers or letters; S . S . F ? or S . S . u? and possibly two numbers slightly fainter to the left hand side 33?

I've a friend who speaks fluent German so I'll see if we can send Herr Haggard an email.

thanks for your time on this, it's been great learning so much so quickly! smile
