I currently own two German single shot rifles that carry no proof marks or other marks other than a serial number.  As I recall, the German proof laws didn't come into effect until around 1901 or some such.

That makes sense in that I'm fairly convinced that this one is pre-1900, just from the casting and machining.

Are you up late, or up early?  Sind Sie Deutsch?

I was up late, but I get up at 4:30 for work.  Tuesday is a National holiday here in Canada, so most people, including me, took Monday off as well for a nice 4-day weekend. I am German, mostly, but only the beer and sausage part!
