  1. Selling this on behalf of a family member of mine, they bought it a while ago to join a club did a few lessons then haven't bothered to carry on with it since. They can't recall what they payed for it and I don't know much about bows. I've searched the Internet to try and find the model " striker beginer " to find an idea to its value but to no avail. I have to state a price due to forum rules so £400 collected from Barnoldswick / Skipton area. 

    Comes with 5 arrows as well.

  4. Im looking for a combination gun preferably a german drilling (side by side with single rifle underneath) but, would consider other options. Im negotiable on caliber and bore sizes, anything from .22lr up to deer caliber centrefires. What have you got?

  5. Ive got a browning bps 7+1 capacity 24" barrel. Straight cast stock, top tang safety, bottom ejection and feed. With a wood stock and corn cob forend. Its completely ambidextrous im left handed and it suits me perfectly. Near skipton but can rfd at cost. 

  6. If it is Austrian as people have suggested I don’t understand why it bears german proof marks only prior to being sleeved unless, It was made in Austria for a German company then rebranded and was proofed in Germany possibly? Either way after looking at both German and Austrian game guns they appear the same style to myself so, I think it would be more plausible it was Manufactured and sold from Germany.

    You obviously don't like it....I'll take it off you to save you any further worry............................

    Nah!  Just jesting.  It looks like a nice old gun and still more than capable of providing some enjoyment. Prior to my going 410 for most things I shot a 16 gauge and do still take it out occasionally and never felt under gunned.

    I feel the 16 is the optimal bore if wanting lighter carry, faster handling yet something that dosent feel like a broom handle in the hands. 

     

    Also the barrels are stamped as prima fluss stahl which is the type of steel they were made of.

    having a look at the latest pics i can just see the word sleeved...........i cannot for the life of me see the join....think it has been done very well..............

    i think when a gun is sleeved...the makers name and info has to be removed .....unless it has been done buy the original maker....so this would account for the difficulty of identification

    If it wasn’t stamped sleeved on the sides of the barrels i highly doubt anyone would notice that its been sleeved the join is practically invisible to my eye. I think whomever did the work they did a good job of it, The balance is spot on and comes in on the scale at 6 pound and 3 ounces. 

  9. On top of the barrels is stamped rauchlos beschossen which is to do with german nitro proof, there is also a symbol and writing which i cant recall from memory but is to do with the type of steel the barrels are constructed out of.

    What does the marking  and lettering on top of the barrels say, looks like proof or makers marks, possibly?

  10. On top of the barrels is stamped rauchlos beschossen which is to do with german nitro proof as wells as something in german to do with the type of steel the barrels are constructed out of. As others have stated there are other german proof marks but nothing thats helped me date it or identify it to a manufacturer. 

  11. I have recently purchased this SxS 16 bore, Its a 2 1/2" chambered boxlock ejector with 3rd bite cross bolt, cocking indicators and a scalloped action. It has a horn buttplate, horn grip cap and horn in lay where a tear drop normally is. I cant find a manufacturer mark stamped anywhere upon it, could anyone identify it off of any of the remaining original proof marks? Thank you Clay Cracker.
