You are correct! A work of art in steel and wood. It's not mine, but I have held one.
Hoening Rotary shotgun.
I’ve missed the boat a couple times on making a killer buy and it’s always been on Shotguns. It was because I didn’t know what they were. I had a chance to buy sliding breech Darne 20g cheap and didnt. Went home and looked it up but was to late. Went to small show in WVa. Guy had a cased pair of Jeffery 410 §x§. Nothing fancy at all. He wanted $1500 for pair. I really wasn’t into shotguns and didn’t buy. Went home that night and decided to go back in AM and buy them. I did and guy had sold one gun out of the pair. I walked again.
It sure is, only back then they went by Sempert & Kreighoff. Herman Goring was fond of their drilling’s and Lugers. Another Kreighoff drilling attributed to Hitler sold a few years back for $140K. These were made long before Kreighoff bought the tooling and rights to the Model 32 from Remington and started producing the K-32. That turned out to be a wise move, since it evolved into the K-80’s and K-20’s, which are very popular today!Yer killin' me here. Not KRIEGHOFF ?I shot trap with a K-80 combo for a dozen years.

Mine isn’t attributable to anyone, but it is a high grade dural frame 300 series boxlock with double underlugs and a double Kirsten crossbolt.
So who made your 10 gauge A&F SxS? Neumann??? I’ve never seen a stock that filled in behind the triggerguard like that, but it’s a good idea on hard kicking waterfowl guns.
Abercrombie and Fitch we’re a premier outfitter back in the day. It’s a darn shame what they’ve become.
