German Engraved and Gold Inlaid H. Leue & Timpe Pinfire Double Barrel Underlever Hammergun

Manufactured circa 1870. With slender etched damascus barrels with slightly concave rib bearing a bead front sight and signed "H. LEUE & TIMPE HOFBÜCHSENMACHER BERLIN" in gold. Casehardened action and back-action locks. Blued scrolled push-forward underlever and trigger guard, the latter with scrolled dark horn finger rest behind. Figured 14 inch stock with raised cheekpiece and checkered grip and permanently attached forearm. Iron butt plate and two iron sling mounts, border and scroll engraving throughout.

ConditionFine. Barrels with some scattered discoloration, the etched pattern in the damascus retains definition and has not been polished smooth. Finish to action and locks rubbed and faded, engraving remains clear and strong. Stock and horn finger rest have some age related storage and handling marks and bruising, checkering remains crisp. Trigger guard retains much original blued finish with crisp engraving. Mechanically excellent.
