SAUER & SOHN SUHL" and the top of each barrel at the breech end is marked "SPECIAL - GEWEHR intertwined rings LAUF-STAHL S.G.1". The breech end of the barrels is engraved with a double band of small circles and the action very light simple line engraving.

Rating Definition:

Very good. The barrels retain 90% original blue finish with some thinning, areas of finish loss and a couple of small areas of minor spotting. The break lever and trigger guard retain 98% original bright blue finish. The action retains 90% original case colors with areas faded to a smooth gray patina. The wood is very good overall with the stock having been freshened with a coat of varnish some time ago. Most of the varnish remains with some crazing and a few minor dents. The forearm shows a few minor dings and handling marks, and overall the checkering is crisp. The markings are clear. Mechanically fine.
