JP Sauer & Sohn 12 Gauge Hammergun, 29.5” Krupp Steel Barrels, Mfg Suhl, Germany pre-1912, Restored
Description: This pre-WWI J.P. Sauer and Sohn hammer gun, serial number 200952, has 29.5” fluid steel (Krupp) barrels choked Improved Cylinder (.010) and Full (.035). The wall thickness (top/side/bottom) for the right barrel at 9” from muzzle is 039/.039/.036 and at the middle of the barrel is .040/.040/.040; the left barrel is .040/.036/.035 and .042/.040/.035, respectively. Bores 9” from the breach are .725/.725 respectively. Chambers are 2-3/4”. The lettering on the top of the barrels is crisp and the bores are bright. The gun locks up tight and on face. This shotgun weighs 6 lb 15 oz. The drop at the comb is 1-7/8” and at the heel 3”. Length of pull is 14-1/4” from the front trigger to the end of the original checkered horn butt plate. All serial numbers match. This pre-WWI shotgun, manufactured in Suhl, Germany is properly restored to bring it back to a condition similar to what it would have been after a few years of use by the original owner. Barrels are re-blued using the Belgian blue process, the action and forearm metal re-color-case hardened, and the wood refinished using stock oil. The price does not include shipping costs paid by buyer. The inspection period is 7 days from receipt. We have fired this shotgun on sporting clays ranges on a number of occasions using standard factory 2-3/4” target loads. However, as for any vintage shotgun, and especially one over a hundred years old, it is recommended that the new owner have it inspected by a professional gunsmith before firing. The gun carries a 30-day warrantee, during which we will have any mechanical problems documented by a professional gunsmith repaired or accept the return of the gun and refund the price of the gun and the return shipping cost. Please do not hesitate to call with questions Stephen Wesbrook, 703-625-4830; Back in Time, LLC -- preserving late 19th and early 20th Century double shotguns. SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes |
