I don't know much about Merkels but a long-ago president of the Seattle Skeet & Trap Club, Peyton Autry, did an interesting article in the July 1975, The American Rifleman, pages 19-21, about his getting top of the line Model 303E and 304E Merkels made when Merkel was in East Germany.
In the article Peyton describes the pre-war boxlocks as the Model 200E and Model 201E with finer engraving. The Model 203E, the Model 303E and Model 304E as hand-detachable sidelocks.
