I just listed this for sale. Let me know if you have any questions:

Probably the finest drilling I've ever seen for any price. No reserve auction.

Great looking wood on that stock rookhawk
 
Im not seeing a chamber length stamp on those 16ga barrels, This gun could have 2 1/2 inch chambers, Its a great price and would make a fine gun for hunting, just something to keep im mind. great price though.
 
Of course it has 2-9/16" chambers, all pre-war drillings from Germany were to that standard. (unless ruined by a guy with a reamer lengthening them under the philosophy that things get stronger by removing metal!) :)
 
I shoot 16's all the time those 2 1/2 in shells are a bit hard to find, thankfully mine is 2 3/4 in, but not everyone knows that all the old ones are 2 1/2 in.
 
Proper shells are easily found, try:

RST
Polywad
B&P
Eley
Kent

Last time I was in Zim the Eley shells I was using were 2.5" as that's what they sell down there!

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.
