This one is interesting to be sure and I know nothing about Stoegers. Is it a 1906 AE receiver or a later receiver that got the AE? Barrel flange looks large suggesting a hybrid. Interesting combination of finishes that I've never seen before, but maybe it is common to the Stoeger guns. The Stoeger logo looks pre-bluing, while the lower printing was applied post bluing. Never seen a barrel marked that way, sideways, no bore diameter and abreviated numbering. Definitely re-barreled.
Don't mind me, as I know nothing of these guns, I'm just talking aloud. But a facinating thread that I will be watching.
Does Simpsons have any listed that we could study for comparison?
