Hi Gents, anyone have any links or info to this maker?

It is a German 9.3x74 double most likely from the guild builders.

We need official proof of the maker as this rifle is having issues bein registered on the Central Firearms Register in SA.

That will be very difficult.

There was a gunsmith named Einbock in Breslau, but Breslau is now called Wroclaw and is part of Poland since 1945. Unfortunately I couldn't find out more about this gunsmith.

If Einbock really was a gunsmith from Silesia, it will be extremely difficult nowadays to find any documentation about him and this rifle.

Has this rifle proof marks ? Unfortunately nothing can be seen in the pictures.
 
Thank you sir. Maybe this one helps:
