Your 7x57 rifle is a 1930s Mauser, Oberndorf factory commercial type B sporter. It is on a very rare double square bridge, solid left wall receiver, apparently an intermediate length action to boot.The square bridges are milled for a Mauser factory scope mount. Please, post photos of all the markings on the left side of receiver and barrel. Knowing the serial number will allow closer dating of the rifle. you are very lucky to get such a gift!
The Bockbüchsflinte = over-under combination can not be identified without potos of all inscriptions and marks on and under barrels.

twt,
We would like very much to help you ang give as much information as possible. However, we can't do that with those photos. It is a problem that they are poorly oriented for reading the markings, but glare and shadow areas also hurt. The "thumbnail" type photos (4 to the page) mean I can't magnify any one of them to be readable without it running off the page. On the otherhand, I am well known to be computer illiterate. While working on photos, don't forget Axel's request for additional photos of the nice Mauser.
Mike
