Can you snap a better image of what looks to be a >>25<< maker's code over stamped by German proofmarks?

Too, there should be a preliminary datastring on one of the ribs of the tubeset.

>>1258<< on the water-table.

>>88/1258<< Maybe the >>88<< has some like to the 88/8X57IR????

I'll ponder on the number but I do see German proofmarks of 16/70 on the flats which I would say over-ride the 16/65 Ferlach marks.

On these Post WWII Ferlach offerings, the maker's mark is usually on the lower tube, forward of the flats up to the forend hanger. Are there any marks around the forend hanger? What is coupled with the >>Frankfurt<< stamp?

The left flats wears the mark of the Ulm German proof facility.

Hum, so the >>25.2.71<< accompany the reproof effort. I am not that familiar with German reproof marks from the 1970s but I guess they could have used a day.month.year type stamp. >>IJ<< , I'll see what I can find. I tend to think it would be the mark of an Austrian mechanic.
