Newbie with the Devil's Gun?

Gentlemen,

Thank you so much for the feedback. It has been, without doubt, a conversation piece and then some.

I am in the process of attempting to determine the history of the guns' travel to the United States. Currently, I am waiting on a response from the widow of the owner who received it from his grandfather. This is as much as I know right now.

The information I've obtained thus far has been from this forum and a few texts, however, I am unfamiliar with acceptance marks and the GDR takedown lever difference. I did read the link, but am unable to determine whether or not this adds value or is simply an indifferent variant. My ballpark on this gun is in the 1400-1700 range.

Does this make sense?
