Hi I recently purchased a Mauser sporter that has J. Albrecht, Detmold written on the top of the barrel. The workmanship is excellent and I would like to know more about it.

Thanks,

Jon

I believe, J. Albrecht is or was gunsmith in the german town Detmold, in Ostwestfalen (Northgermany).

quattro- have you ever seen a rifle with these markings on them?

I�m sorry, I never saw a rifle with these markings on barrel. I will ask my gunsmith this weekend,if he know anythink about J. Albrecht.
I write next week,what he means.

This gunmaker does not exist anymore. Give Deckert in Detmold a phone call, they have been around the block a long time and they should know, if anyone does at all.

I couldn�t find any informations about J. Albrecht,neither in german gun digest, lists of trade marks, nor in the book " Mauser Original Oberndorf sporting Rifles".

quattro, thank you very much for researching for me I appreciate it. If you ever hear anything about him please let me know. Thanks again,
Jon
