J.P. Sauer & Son Boxlock question - 09/22/09 08:07 PM
Greetings all,
first time posting, but I've been lurking here for a bit...
I recently picked a J.P Sauer & Son Boxlock 20ga. from Cabela's up here in Maine and I have some questions I hope can be answered here. I'm looking for a date of manufacture and any specific info on the model. From what I can tell its not a Royal or a Model 60.
Some characteristics:
J.P Sauer & Son stamped on Krupp barrels, not J.P. Sauer & Sohn, which leads me to believe that this was an import meant for the American market.
Seriel #: 141788
Chamber size indicated on the barrel is 70 mm which I believe is 2 3/4"
Weight is 5 lbs 7 onces
Breach has "Made in Prussia" stamped on it.
Also, should I want to replace the stock and forearm where would be a good place to start.
