Charles Daly - H.A. Lindner Nr. 1569 w/ Crossed Sidearms surmounted by a Crown being the 1st sighting thus far of the Lindner control mark:






Tubeset knitter had the initials K.S.


Anyone care to hasten a guess that this is a Modell Nr. 55 or Modell Nr. 403???


Use of the Deeley & Edge forend mechanism dates it post then.

And believe you me in the 1870s & 1880s Charles Daly, W. & C. Scott & others offer a boat load of 10 bore hammerguns. I have strong suspicions that the long toplever & forend bump can be attributed to the Triebel klan.

In my notes, I have Charles Daly Nr. 796 as being manufactured in 1872. Anyone confirm that?

Well, a picture is worth a 1000 words as usual w/ the date on the brass escutcheon:
