Very odd that this gun has indicators on both top and side? Never have seen that before. Will be interesting to take those plates off, hope their not fake?

Jtplumb,
Maybe the top ones are loaded chamber indicators, whereas the side ones are cocking indicators.

The sideplates aren't really fake but the platform is more of psuedo A&D Body Action with the mainspring on the sideplate.

Well, It’s actually a sidelock (not a very complex one) and the pins on top are firing pin retainer screws. What is this prima kruppscher? Obviously seen Krupp stahl but scher? Also plate on inside says 1? Maybe size of plate or model? Guessing again. What might you fellas think about this one? ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/vgnCp60.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/mosGYPZ.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/4TXUBTi.jpg)

There's a DRGM, Novel Small Addition, which probably covers the mousetrap. See if there is a number associated with the DRGM.

Only number 1 on locks. Here is the initials barrel knitter. KA? ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/xhPrJOU.png) Gun weighs 5.6lbs 29” barrels and looks like original lop was 13” has widows peak so doubt was shortened. Almost child or women’s size gun, super diminutive frame also. Guess my 12 year old hit the jackpot! Barrels are approximately .110 thick at front of chambers and .040 thick at 2/3s down. They will get honed pretty rough but no visible deep pits. I have never feared Krupp fluid steel barrels that measured this reasonable. Only needs 3/4-7/8oz loads at this weight anyway.

Probably >>F.A.<< or less likely >>E.A.<< and >>F.A.<< is quite common forward on the flats on doubles post WWI. If >>F.A.<< then maybe Franz Adamy or if earlier in time, Friedrich Adamy. There really aren't that many A family Büchsenmacher families but if not Adamy, then maybe Albrecht & Anschütz(those few from Suhl). I will ponder a bit on it.
