There are no fleas on a Fox Sterlingworth and I like mine a lot. Very nice shooting guns. a G is okay, but on the highish side. I paid that for mine 20 years ago tho, but it was redone and in fine condition with the case.
You will never have a better shooting gun, and as we all know, if we pay too much we still get the gun and after a while we don't care if we paid too much. |
I should call them and see if it is still available. Going on Monday to look at a hammer drilling 16gax16gax30-30. Can not wait to see it in person.

I hadn't heard of a drilling in that configuration. Who is the maker. It sounds fairly interesting. I would like to have a drilling but It would have to be one of the larger rifle bores may be 40cal with 12ga above.

The german gun collectors told me that this was a combination made specifically for import into the U.S. The owner says there is no markings on the gun. I find this hard to believe. I am going to look it over real well and if he lets me take some good pictures. I have a guess the gun was made by maker named W. Weisgerber but I have no proof yet.

If the gun has no markings than it is a guild gun. That's not a bad thing. I own one and it is a very nice gun. You should be able to figure out witch country it is made in from the proof marks. Some times the maker can be identified by the style. I hav'nt found anybody who can tell me who built mine. It is 16ga over 9.3 x 72.

Looked at the gun. The proof marks show that it clearly german. The shotgun barrels were pitted and the barrel is marked 9mm but it is suppose to be a 30-30. Kind of confusing. Here are some pics if you guys have any ideas.

The gun had some writing around the barrel all I could make out on the left barrel was XXXXXaer and on the right Stahl. The barrel also had sch son written on it, no idea what that means.

Eldon you should have a chamber cast done before you but if you hav'nt already bought it.9 mm and 30ca. don't add up.
|
that stahl means steel.. the 9 mm could be9x72r a very fine and really old shell its a little stouter than a 30-30..shells can still be found...or the 9 mm could be a 9x74 r now this is areal big game shell.i would live to have a gun in this calibre...i would almost bet though its the 9x 72 ractually they list as a 9.3x72r...i had a 16x16 x9.3x72r once upon a time...charlie

I have decided to pass on it. I am trying to get information for the owner however as he was a nice guy. All I know is something does not add up. They have shot 30-30 in it but you would think it would be stamped 7.62.
