Model of 1905 Fixed Sight Target *Update - SFPD Gun!*

[VM]

Slight update for everyone on this ad page.

It's out of a Stoeger Catalog, probably 1940. I looked through my pile of them and the oldest one I could find in mine was in catalog 30, which also has this ad. I thought that it was 1939, but looking through the catalog I am seeing a lot of Mauser guns for sale, so I'm starting to wonder if it's not a bit earlier.

I'd be interested to find out if anyone has a Stoeger Catalog of an earlier number then 30, to see if the ad is also in there.

Caleb - here's more early advertising from 1923 on an envelope.

Update: Roy looked this up and Jean wrote this beautiful document for me that really makes this gun super neat in my opinion (also for me at least absolutely cements the fact that the King shop did this job):



Pulled the side plate looking for more markings, nothing under the side plate that I can see. Snapped a shot anyway:

A find like this makes the search worth it!!!!
