I have to think hard about this one: (You need to Login or Register to view media files and links)

Google Translation: Break-barreled rifle, tell-action rifle with scope. for hunting shooting.

Shooting award from 1921. Signed for the 200th year. Anniversary shooting Karlsruhe. Reinh.Andree Jnh. W. Demmand.

Cal.8.15x46R. Ser.No. 1667 on barrel and receiver. Manufacturer's mark Hubertus (was a trademark of Albrecht Kind Gummersbach AKAH). Probably made in Suhl. Imperial valid proof marks. Simple barrel hook lock (no play). Very well-preserved original bluing, color hardening. Sharp-edged, bright barrel interior of the conically tapered octagonal barrel. Rifle scope (formerly sniper scope) from WW1. Manufacturer Hensold Wetzlar target diary with sniper reticle on a tight hook mount, transparent for aiming with open sights). Sliding lock on the piston neck, signal pin to indicate the tension status of the lock. German engraver.

Total length 106cm. Barrel length 65cm. Shaft size 35cm.

This rifle was a shooting event for the 200th anniversary shooting in Karlsruhe that took place from May 28th, 2021 - June 5th, 1921!

Tell rifles in this complete (with original scope) in this untouched top condition are really rare.

Valid imperial fire!
  

If your rifle is not in 7.62 and you can't hit what you are aiming at with de-linked machinegun ammo you are a pretender.

Beautiful workmanship. 

Does seem to have more than enough drop to the butt stock and looks like a very long face would be needed to use the cheek piece.
