Manufactured in Germany. The locks, hammers, fences and trigger guard are engraved with floral scroll designs. The left lock is marked "R. FALTA" and the right "WEIMAR". The Damascus pattern barrels feature a concave matte solid rib with a single brass bead sight and dolls head extension. The top of the rob is marked "ROB. FALTA, HOFBUSCHSENMACHER, WEIMAR". 2 1/2 inch chambers, choked cylinder/cylinder and extractor. Mounted with a checkered walnut splinter forearm and straight grip stock with a checkered bare butt. Length of pull is 13 3/8 inches. Comes with a leather mutton case.

Rating Definition:

Very good as partially refinished (barrels). The barrels retain most of the brown finish with all of the Damascus pattern remaining. The remaining metal surfaces have a smooth mottled gray patina. The wood is also very good as refinished with a small minor crack in the left stock flat, a couple of small chips on the edge of the butt, and overall some minor dents and dings. The markings and engraving are clear. Mechanically fine. The case is good with some wear and tight stitching.
