I would like to know if anyone can provide me with information on and the cost of this old Drilling I just inherited.....
The rib between the barrels at the top, is marked "W KUNNA KORLENZ" and I believe that to be the manufacturer.
The left and right barrels, on the tops, are marked as "FLUSS STAHL/KRUPP ESSN" as a circle with crossed cannons in the center of the words. I believe that "KRUPP" alludes to the maker of either the steel or the barrels themselves.
The left barrel, in front of the above marked reads "SUHL"
The right barrel, in front of the above mark reads "HUBERTUS"
The number on the trigger guard is a six digit number and does not match the five digit number on the stock, which is on the bottom of the stock just behind the trigger guard. As you look at the drilling from the bottom it is also marked as "WAFFEN FRANKUNIA" just to the right of the number.
It is a 16ga. double barrel with a 8mm (8.57JR??)rimmed barrel directly underneath and between the upper barrels.
Barrels are about 26" long.
Stock has a cheekpiece, a curved buttplate of bakelite and a rounded pistol grip that has a bone flutted cap on it (with a screw in the middle)
There is engraving everywhere but not of scenes, just patterns.
There are more markings on the bottom of the barrels when you remove them from the gun, but they are a repeat on the KRUPP markings..
Any help is appreciated.....
