I'm a recent addition to THR - Bear with me. I bought a JP Sauer a couple of weeks ago and I don't know what I've got. I done a lot of looking at the various forums since I got it - I still don't know what I have. I do know that it manufacture date was 5/35 and that it is a beautiful gun. I don't know if it has been restored/reworked? The gun appears to have little wear - condition is excellent however, several things make me think I may have been reworked. Specifically, no carry swivel on stock - no butt plate - only engraved wood. It is bored for 2.5 inch ammo/16ga. and the barrels are open. Circle around the number 16 on barrel proof marks indicate this I think. If anyone can help, thanks in advance.
