16 gauge Geha
Does anyone know how to tell the manufacturing date on one of these old German Geha's? Someone interested in my auction asked if I could send it to a C&R license holder. Can I? I looked it up on the BATF and it was sorta vague: "manufactured after WWI and before 1946". How can I tell? Here's the link to the auction: http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=157795491

You should make the buyer prove to you it is C&R eligible 0 -
Thanks, I did reply to the potential buyer that he should look into it because he's a C&R holder. But I got a feeling that question will come up again. Does anyone know if there is a year under the stock? Or, were these things only converted until 1946? Any info would be greatly appreciated. 0 -
Rifles of the World page 326 By John Walter says the
Geha factory made 2 shot shotgun conversions between 1925 to 1933.0 -
Thank you. I do not have that book. It sounds like this shotgun would be C&R eligible then. Does the book describe a 16 gauge conversion? I've heard of and seen numerous 12 gauge conversions, but this is the only 16gauge I've seen. Thanks again. 0 -

Whether the Geha is or isn't on the C & R list appears moot to me. As it's over 50 years old it would be automatically fall into the C & R category. As they and the Romo's date to the 1920's, their C & R guns. 0 -
Been doing quite a bit of online searching and everything I've seen (which isn't a lot) all points to 20's and 30's conversions. Geha & HHH being the more common. Would anyone here hesitate to sell it to a C&R holder? Again, I already have it listed and would like to sell this gun. Thanks for all the help! 0 -
you can check the atf web sight, ANYTHING over 50 years old is ok for a 03 ffl. I wouldn'r hesitate to sell to one. 0
