bagup-sam Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 I have a 12 bore side by side shotgun which was given to me, and i believe it to be Austrian and apparently it was swapped during the war by the person who gave it to me for a camera. I have all the numbers and details of it but am struggling to date it! If anyone knows about it then I would be very grateful of any knowledge given on it! On the underside of the trigger guard, it says FERLACH, GMF, AUSTRIA on the barrels it says: BOHLER-BLITZ STAHL (believed to be the steel used for the barrels) on the barrels: 12/70 (believed to be the gauge and chamber length) On the barrels: 38/1207 IT also has on the barrels a 'W' letter with a ring around it, and also the letters NPF in a formation of the N and P being large next to each other, and the F being small under the P. It also has what looks like to be an eagle with outspread wings. And there are a few numbers on the the stock where the barrels meet: 1728.53 It would be very interesting to know how old it is and whether it is worth anything.
