I'm looking for the information on the J.P.Sauer & Sohn & Suhl 16 ga SxS hummerless gun, #291583, bbls marked with Krupp-Laufstahl and a lot of other marks.

Respectfully

Don't know what kind of info you want, but Sauer never made a bad gun. Ofcourse, any mfg. can make a isolated lemon.

Looking firstly for date of manufacturing. Also, if I'm lucky, replacement parts (wood).

I believe that your serial number places the date of manufacture sometime in the late 1920's. If so, there should be a date code on the barrel flats. Look for a 3 or 4 digit number indicating the month and year of manufacture, probably with a slash between the month and the year. For example, 3/28 idicates March 1928. The slash was used until the 1930's. After that there were just the numbers (1054 = October 1954)

Thank you, I got it. It stamped 11/29. Interesting, how much it may cost in the fair condition with good bore and tight wood to metal fit, but scratched here and there wood?

Addition research show that it is probably Model VIII.

Does it have VL&D New York as the importer on the barrels or rib?

 

[midgems]

No, I can't see any importer marks.
