"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.

http://www.doublegunshop.com/forums/ubbt...true#Post159735Yeah, see if Forrest can snap an image of the Crown/A(possibly Belgian inspector touchmark) thru a magnifying glass. Kind Regards, Raimey rse

http://freemycollection.com/?page=manufacturers&id=40&name=A-G-GenezSome 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 Kind Regards, Raimey rse
