JP Sauer & Sohn 16 ga SxS Hammer Gun, Left Hand, Rising Comb! 28" barrels, 65mm chambers, F&F, 6lbs 12 oz. Clean bores, locks up tight. $750 + shipping & insurance to your FFL. This is a pre-1898 gun, I think. It has 1 oz, 900 millibar (13,000 psi) Nitro proofs.

PM me for pics, I have plenty; haven't figured out the off-site photo hosting yet.

The rising comb: the dealer I bought it from, Charlie at Hill Rod & Gun, believes that that this was originally a 2 barrel combo, with the 2nd set of barrels being either a Cape set ( a rifle barrel and a shotgun barrel) or a rifle barrels set. The rising comb is to activate for use with the rifle sights on that set of barrels. The comb is spring-loaded, and rises when the slide on the bottom of the stock near the wrist is pulled.

I loved this feature, as I require a fairly high comb, and this feature helped me shoot this gun quite well.

This is listed on gunbroker, lots of pics there. Item 1100341640 You can buy this directly from me through 16ga society without paying sales tax and gunbroker fees, if you wish.

Actual shipping and insurance costs to your dealer will be required.

The 900 millibar proofs should enable this gun to shoot modern factory loads. I always loaded my own, and kept pressures in the vicinity of 6-7000 psi

If you have an interest in the Sauer that's also listed on gunbroker, you can still purchase direct from me on this site and avoid sales tax, etc., I will withdraw the listing on gb and sell to you via 16ga society. Make me an offer!!
