Engraved and Gold Inlaid Pre-World War II Heinrich Scherping Side Lock Hammerless Drilling

The receiver and lock plates have tight floral scroll border engraving around the outside edges. "H. SCHERPING" is gold inlaid on the left lock plate in a banner surrounded by floral scroll engraving and the right lock plate has "HANNOVER" inlaid in gold on a banner surrounded by floral scroll. There is a beaded blade front sight and a flip up rear sight on the solid rib with bases for a claw scope mount. There are double gold bands around the breech end of the barrel. The shotgun barrels are choked skeet II/full and have 2 inch chambers with an extractor. The rifle chambering appears to be 9.3x72R. Mounted on a select walnut forearm with multi-point checkering and a Prince of Wales style buttstock with raised cheekpiece, cartridge trap and a serrated horn buttplate. Length of pull is 14 inches.

ConditionProfessionally refurbished with only a few very light handling/storage marks overall. The right firing pin does not always function.
