look carefully at the background by the mans elbow and then at what looks like a leaver it has the same colour and texture. The angle is wrong and the spur you can see the line flow all the way down to its tip the shadow from the back flows into the spur. It is part of the rifle trigger guard the black bit at the top is not it has the wrong shading and goes behind the boot not in front of it. the front "Trigger/leaver is also missing from within the trigger guard which at the front of Werder "Aptiertes" has a screw holding it to the action which is missing on this rifle. This rifle has a much thicker trigger guard at the front and can be seen to follow around and down just inside the front of the trigger guard The trigger guard caries on much further back under the back of the action on this rifle as well. There are at most only two barrel bands on this one the muzzle and one possibly under his hand The muzzle band curves back much further and sharper than the Werder in the pictures and the free muzzle ahead of the band is different also does not appear to have any provision for a bayonet like the Werder. The sight (if that is what it is) is just ahead of the breach whereas in the Werder it is further forward and with a barrel band just in front of it. I have added some side by side pictures for all to see and reduced them to gray scale the same they are not standing in the same plane so stock size and shape will appear vastly different but should be comparable.
