Presentation Grade H&H Zehner Sidelock Drilling 16ga x 16ga. x 7x57R - Fantastic Germanic Engraving
Description: Presentation grade H&H Zehner of Frankfurt Drilling with fantastic Germanic engraving. H&H Zehner was a respected post-war gunmaker based in Frankfurt Germany and specialized in custom and often highly ornamented sporting guns. A tremendously talented and respected maker in their day. This particulaer gun was made in 1952 (date stamp 352). SN#:1176. Gauge/Cal: 16 ga x 16ga x 7x57R w/ 70mm/2 3/4" shotgun chambers. Double underlug, third crossbolt, sideclip, and nitro proofed 24" Krupp-Laufstahl steel barrels. Extractors. Barrels have full length herringbone pattern engraved rib with pop-up rifle sight and provision for claw mount scope. Sling swivel soldered to bottom barrel. Highly ornamented full sidelock double trigger action. Front set-trigger for rifle. Horn triggerguard. Side-safety and top push-button secondary safety sliding shotgun/rifle selector that actuates the rear sight to the standing position when moved into the forward position. Single pin cocking indicator for rifle barrel. Extraordinary and extensive deep relief Germanic engraving throughout. Left lockplate features a trophy stag, two cow elk, and a flushing pheasant, all in a deep relief forest scene. Right lockplate features three roe deer (a buck and two doe) and a flushing grouse, again all set in a deep relief engraved forest scene. Balance of metal surfaces are engraved with deep relief oak leaf engraving (as are the matching barrel chevrons). Gorgeous dark figured European walnut stock with heavily carved oak leaf pattern pistol grip and forend. Small shadowline cheekpiece. 14 5/8" LOP over crescent checkered buffalo horn buttplate. Horn pistol grip cap. Sling swivel on bottom centerline of stock. Condition: Gun is in remarkably nice overall original condition. Barrels retain all of their original deep rich rust blue. Bores are clean and brite with strong rifling. Wood retains all of its original oil finish with only scant light handling marks. Horn parts are all perfect condition. Rifle selector and front pop-up sight work flawlessly. Side safety fully functional albeit slighty stiff to put to "s" postion. Works easily going to fire position. Barrels on face and lock-up tight. Gentlemen, this is one of the nicest German drillings we have seen. Abosultely comparable to the finest Krieghoff, Sauer, Merkel, or Daly drillings. Workmanship is flawless and tastefully executed. Excellent chamberings make it a useful gun for today's hunt. An exceptional collectible gun for sure.
