260's rifle has a palm rest attached to the forend that is what I am calling a hanger.
IIRC, the palm rest is engraved "Schoyen" in script and I believe that Schoyen was a gunsmith in Denver, CO, who specialized in building Schuetzen rifles and accesories. I don't recall that the hanger is marked, as I've never taken it off the rifle, but it appears to be of the same age and quality as the palm rest. I have known that it was a special rifle all of my life, as it was one of only a half-dozen or so non-Winchester firearms that my Father kept in glass front cabinets in the library at the house I grew up in. While he was a primarily a pre-'64 Model 70 Winchester man, he was known to purchase all sorts of high grade and unusual firearms if the price was right.
