What are you trying to find out? it was made in Spain for Stoeger to import to the US.

The 1970's and 80's saw a major downturn in business for Spanish gunmakers. During this time, Victor Sarasqueta, S.A. was reorganized as Victor Sarasqueta Rifles y Escopetas Especiales, S.A. A number of models were discontinued and the production range was reduced to two boxlock models and eight sidelock shotgun and three sidelock double rifle models. In the mid-1980's, the firm became part of the ill-fated Diarm group which tried to consolidate several Spanish gunmaking firms into one company. The Diarm firm closed their doors in the late 1980's ending a chapter in Spanish gunmaking.
