Greetings, all
I'm trying to identify a double rifle for a friend of mine. He was a medic in WWII and brought it back from Germany. It is quite attractive and fairly light for a double. It appears to be a .375 H&H, but I'm not 100% certain about that; I just measured the muzzle with a ruler and eyeballed the chamber.
Without taking it apart, the only really distinguishing verbage is "H LINK WHITTENBURG" engraved along the top of the rail that separates the two barrels. I couldn't find a serial number or a manufacturer's stamp or anything.
Also, it has hammers, and isn't an underlever.
Any assistance will be much appreciated.
I can be contacted at tom@taliv.net
