Siegfried Gunther ''Triumpf'' Scalloped Boxlock Over Under Shotgun
serial #346, 12 ga (2 3/4''), 27 1/2'' Krupp Laufstahl barrels choked modified in both with bright near excellent bores showing a little subtle frosting or stubborn fouling. The barrels of this October 1936 proof-dated shotgun retain about 95% original blue showing some subtle thinning or toning under bright light and a few small spots of wear on the left side. The action retains about 95% lovely vibrant case-hardened colors showing a little scattered fine oxidation speckling that is very minor and some drifting to silvery gray along the triggerguard and lower tang. The action is lightly and tastefully embellished with simple line borders and filigree scroll, the bottom of the action marked ''ORIGINAL SIEGFRIED / MIT / EINABZUG TRIUMPF''. The checkered capped pistolgrip walnut buttstock, forend and side panels remain in very fine condition, the only real apology being a few areas a little shy where the buttstock meets the action and a thin 1'' chip along the bottom edge of the right stock flat. The checkering remains strong, the left-side European cheekpiece is well-defined and the wood shows some lovely grain figure throughout. The buttstock is fitted with a solid red rubber pad and black spacers providing a 14 1/8'' length-of-pull with drops of 1 5/8'' and 2 3/4''. The barrels are marked for 70mm shells and the shotgun is equipped with sling swivels, cocking indicator pins, non-automatic safety, single mechanical trigger and is sighted with a small celluloid mid-bead and medium brass bead front. Barrels lock up solid on-face with top lever resting about center and the ejectors are robust and in-time. Weight is 6 lbs. 13 oz. An attractive pre-war over under. (13B11506-3) {C&R} (1200/1800)
