Faller, Robert- Freiburg

By Larry B. Schuknecht with Photos and Information submitted by Mark Williamson

From what information is available at this time-Robert Faller purchased a gunmaking business in Freiburg/ Breisgau around 1910 or 1911 and only operated it for a short time before he sold it to Hermann Sepp in 1915.

Below is an entry for Robert Faller, found in a 1912 Freiburg address book.

Below is another entry for the Robert Faller business which declares that Hermann Sepp is his successor from a 1920 Freiburg address book.

Mark Williamson kindly shares pictures of his Robert Faller Drilling with us. It is 16 ga. over 8x58R Sauer. Mark has put the gun together with accessories in a period correct case making a very appealing outfit. He states that the gun originated in the shop of Thieme & Schlegelmilch in Suhl.
