If anyone has a copy of the above could you look up the City of Moehringen and see if there is a gunsmith listed for that City by the name of P. Kieszewski. I am trying to find some info on the gunsmith.
Many Thanks
Ernie

I think the name of the gunsmith should be P. KLESZEWSKI. He was active in Metz in the early 1900s.

Do you have any idea where I could find any info on the gunsmith Kleszewski?? I have tried everywhere on the internet and can find no record of him anywhere. The reason I am trying so hard is the gun is so beautiful I would like to find out more about the gunsmith. Anyone that could make a gun with this much engraving and inlaid silver must be listed somewhere.
Many Thanks
Ernie

Ernie,
I'm afraid I gave you all I know about P. Kleszewski. He was active in Metz before 1918 (I have his Drilling from this period) and seemingly emigrated to Möhringen after the French reclaimed Metz in 1918/19. I could not find anything on him in published sources. A research of archive material in France and Germany would probably give some results but would take a lot of determination.

Hello Raimey,
I bought my set back in the 1980s directly from the publisher, Journal-Verlag Schwend, Schwäbisch Hall, Germany. I would check them first, otherwise see the usual sources for out of print books. I find quite some from my wish list on eBay. Good luck.
Regards,
Jani

I bought mine in Germany as well but that was enough years ago that I don't remember from who I got it. When I bought mine there was only two volumes, Vol I 1978, Vol II 1979. I don't know when volume III was published.
