Those are some of deepest side clips I have ever seen on an action. With those, a greener side bolt and what appears to be double lugs underneath, I am not certain if you could beat that gun loose with ball peen hammer. Are those also sideclips on the receiver next to barrel flats?
Those barrels look stout as well and you would have done something to ever wear those out. That is a solid good looking gun obviously made to shoot, a lot. Hard to believe it weighs under 8 as strong as it looks with all those features. They packed a lot into that gun. Wouldn't surprise me a bit if someday you discover a can or bottle opener hidden into design of that gun. That is a neat firearm. |

The sling loops could probably be used as a bottle opener.
I took the swivel loops off because the rear ine kept catching the pocket of my vest when mounting the gun.

I know slings are a popular feature for some European shotguns but never saw need or attraction of them. I guess they need to carry their guns a long way and sling is helpful for them. I guess a sling would be helpful if hunting partridge on the side of the Matterhorn.

Yep Germans love that Greener action and side clips, its a good combination. BTW looking at Brians gun could swear it looked like there were additional side clips also by barrel flats, but looked again and it was just a finish on the barrel.
Does that Wolf gun also have swivel barrels for a sling. |

German guns often have all the things I like, and all the things I don't like, all in one package.
