 More than likely has a Jno. Hy. Andrew & Co. Ltd. Toledo Steel Sheffield, England stamp   The Franz Drescher Troppau Jani notes that it has Sheffield tubes steel.  A Blitz drilling that I believe we know where it sourced. Kind Regards, Raimey rse

I just knew there was cross-sourcing or effort between Gustav Tichy(1867-1942) & Franz Drescher as it was about 45 miles portal to portal between their shingles. I'm not positive on what part Franz Drescher played so maybe Jani can translate for us: "Prodám kulobrok G.Tichý Moravská Ostrava 8x57Jr/16/65,Holland-Holland,rok výr.1938,klapková montáž F.Drescher Troppau...."

"I am selling a rifle/shotgun combination G. Tichy Moravska Ostrava 8x57JR/16/65, Holland-Holland, year of production 1938, scope mount by F. Drescher Troppau..."
BTW 'Holland-Holland' is a popular European naming for sidelocks.
With kind regards,
Jani

Jani:
I've seen the phrase Velejemna Armani(?) Ocel on a H. Pieper style hammer double retailed by (V)Ladislav Svestak of Praha. I was curious what type super fine steel it was advertising?

Raimey,
"Very fine army steel", according to my Slovakian colegue Andy.
Armani should be Armadni in this phrase, meaning of the army (armada = army).
With kind regards,
Jani

Thanks Jani for the spelling correction. I could not read all the characters. I guess I should post an image.
Kind Regards,
