Your gun should have a date code on it.

German makers were using it for a while, at least back to the 1930's...

Post some close-up pictures of all of teh numbers/markings on the underside of the barrels. Like Bill said, a date code should appear. (IE: 8.27 or 8/27 would mean proof in August of 1927).

My Sauer hammer driller is 16X16X11.15X65. I shoot .410s out of the bottom barrel. It's a great little gun.

Does it look like this Bill? I havent shot 410 yet. Can you shoot 410 slug?

Ed,

I saw the picture of your gun on the site you sent. I could not see a date on the bottom but I think it is pre-war based on some of the other markings.
