Offered here is a superb and highly desirable pre-war Greifelt No. 1 game scene factory engraved 12 gauge shotgun, an elegant example of fine Suhl gunmaking from Germany’s golden age of sporting arms. Beautifully proportioned, expertly crafted, and richly appointed, this refined double barrel embodies the balance, style, and mechanical excellence that made prewar German guns so respected among discerning sportsmen and collectors alike.

This handsome Greifelt is fitted with 26 inch solid rib barrels displaying bright and shiny bores, choked Improved Modified and Improved Cylinder, offering a wonderfully versatile combination for upland game or sporting use. The chambers are factory marked 2 5/8 inch and have been professionally opened to the more practical 2 3/4 inch length, enhancing usability with modern ammunition.

The receiver retains attractive case coloring and is beautifully embellished with a finely executed factory engraved game scene, surrounded by elegant floral scrollwork of notable depth and quality. The engraving is tasteful, refined, and entirely in keeping with a best-quality continental sporting arm. This gun is equipped with double triggers, the preferred traditional arrangement for instant choke selection and classic field handling.

Stockwork is particularly impressive, featuring an exhibition grade round knob walnut stock with sharp checkering and carved accents, paired with a matching forend. The butt is finished in especially handsome fashion with bone heel and toe plates joined by a checkered center section, a luxurious detail seldom encountered and highly admired by collectors.

At only 6.6 pounds, this Greifelt carries with remarkable ease and possesses the lively handling qualities so sought after in a fine field gun. It is accompanied by a hard case for storage and transport.

An exceptionally desirable and elegantly executed pre-war German double barrel, this Greifelt No. 1 Game Scene 12 gauge offers rarity, beauty, and refined sporting character in one distinguished package. A superb opportunity for the collector or gentleman sportsman seeking a truly uncommon continental classic.
