Unequivocally, the image of the lugs with the Crows are the Quality Crowns & Shooting Performance Crowns of Sauer. So it began life under Nummer 62916 and I would assume that Nummer 145812 is also on the water-table?

Cheers,

Raimey, I'm not familiar with Sauer's "Quality Crowns & Shooting Performance Crowns". Could you please explain? The dual serial numbers appear to be only on the barrel though.

Sam,
The two crowns in the last photo (IMG 0008) confirm Raimey's thought that the Drilling is a Sauer product. The Crown S on any barrel means it was proofed for shot, a crown W means it was choked( amount of constriction not shown), the crown U means the drilling underwent a view proof( a detailed inspection and confirmation of dimensions, after definitive proof). The 16 in a circle means it had a normal 16 ga. chamber, which was 2 1/2- 2 9/16" at the time( actually it still is, even though most all guns now have 2 3/4" chambers). The 16/1 is the bore diameter ahead of the chamber, this is about 16.99 mm.
