Sorry Raimey, I just noticed your comment from 16 minutes ago. No, as I said prior to seeing your question, DRGM appears at least four places on the gun with no associated number.

Better pictures of the cartridge trap and floor plate.

A while back...maybe a few months ago, in my first post to this site, I posted pictures of another drilling (HCG Stein was inscribed on that one). The underside of the barrel was stamped G.M., could that be for Gebrauchsmuster, as in "DRGM"?

Okay, sorry, as related to the current post, I just realized that i didn't post these pictures! This info is stamped in the lower sides of both barrels.

D.R.G.M. - Deutsches Reichsgebrauchsmuster or petty patent/novel idea. Since there is an associated number might be difficult to pen down but I'll look for the Roux underlever blitz type action. But the signal indicators may not be far enough back for the Meffert Treff, then it would be a Blitz/triggerplate action of sorts.
S in a chevron is the mark of sourcing from the Schilling forge. Z-M proof date is 1 up from the bottom where the ledger number is for that month - 8.07 above 647?
Yes, the V is actually a screwhead.
Cheers,
Raimey

Raimey, In your above post, you mention the Z-M proof date. I see the 8.07, where is the "Z-M", or a symbol that gives you the Zella-Mehlis location? Also, what does the "647" refer to?
Sorry, I don't know how to reference, or quote your post within my reply as I have seen others do.

gjk,
The ledger number shows that it was proofed in Zella-Mehlis, and was likely made there or near there. At the time, the Suhl proof house didn't mark the guns with a ledger number. The ledger number means it was the 647th gun to enter the proof house that month.

I think this is a similar Drilling from a Catalogue of A. Kleszcezewski (one Gunmaker and Dealer of so many in that time) in Berlin:  Cheers, Gunwolf
