serial #1058, 16 ga (2 1/2''), 29 1/2'' Krupp-stahl barrels choked modified and full with bright very fine bores showing some scattered stubborn fouling. The barrels retain about 75% original blue showing scattered surface oxidation, light handling marks and toning to gray-brown patina under bright light. The barrel rib is nicely matted and the barrels show strong ''ROBERT SCHULER / COLN A. RH.'' markings. The action retains about 80% original rust blue with high edge wear and toning to mild gray patina under bright light showing some light border embellishments and floral motifs around the screw heads, the top surfaces matted and also with nice arcaded fences. The horn triggerguard is in fine condition and the shotgun is equipped with an interesting steel pistolgrip cap marked ''SCHLOSS WACHENDORF / POST ANTWEILER , BEZ. COLN'' surrounding the Mallinckrodt family coat of arms. Preliminary research indicates that Wachendorf Castle, southwest of Cologne, was acquired by a member of the prominent Mallinckrodt family around 1896. The checkered walnut stock and splinter forend remain in about very fine condition showing an old light cleaning with scattered light dings and handling marks, the end of the butt with some darkened areas of mild oxidation leaching. The horn forend tip is intact and the stock features left-side shadowline cheekpiece and heel and toe plates that show some old oxidation. Length-of-pull is 14 1/2'' with drops of 1 5/8'' and 3'', cast is neutral. The gun is equipped with sling swivels, silver bead front sight, non-automatic safety double triggers and cocking indicator pins, and weight is 6 lbs. 3 oz. The gun features sideclips and locks up solid via dual under-bites and Greener crossbolt showing a faint sliver of light at the breech, the top lever a touch left-of-center. The left ejector will require some mechanical attention as it is out of time and sometimes trips when the gun has not been fired. The right seems to function well. An interesting German double, perhaps brought back from the grounds of Castle Wachendorf by an enterprising GI. (13B11778-20) {C&R} (1000/1500)
