Merkel 302 E two-barrel set -16b. X 16b. & 16b. X 9.3X72R made in 1933.
Beautiful wood and engraving = hunting scenes and oak leaves I do not know how to post pictures here.
I found it in 2019 and it replaced my Merkel 210 as my deer rifle since Ohio does not allow bottleneck cartridges for deer.
I sent it to JJ Perodeau Gunmaker to craft claw rings and sight in the Schmidt & Bender 1.5X6. scope.
Merkel sent me the build card for this pre-war combination set. They still had the records!
