"CEW" is marked on the underside of two shotgun barrells-W R Schaefer and
A G Genez-Breechloaders. Any idea of who this is? The mark is only on the
Left BBL
Thanks

I'm all but positive he was a Georg Lindner subcontractor. I would also add that Schovering, Daly & Gales more than likely were involved.

Yeah, see if Forrest can snap an image of the Crown/A(possibly Belgian inspector touchmark) thru a magnifying glass.

Some info on A.G. Genez but I think the Nov. 1860 date to be in error and it should read Nov. 1880. Sometime between 1875 & 1880 Vincent Bissig acquired the concern.


1871 A.G. Genez Advert


1871 Info noting 25 years in business


Nov. 1880 Vincent Bissig Advert


1871 The Daly Gun Advert noting W.R. Schaefer & Thos. L. Golcher
