Hi Guys,
I recently purchased a Charles Daly branded, 3-barrel drilling serial # 328xx.
While I know this firearm came out of an estate sale in Texas, other than the fact that this gun was originally imported by Schoverling, Daly & Gales Firearms company I know very little about the history of this specific firearm.
From what I have gathered here and elsewhere I believe this gun was most likely produced by J.P. Sauer in the late 1800’s.
The top barrels are 12ga with the left barrel choked modified and the right barrel choked full.
As far as the rifle barrel is concerned I believe most of these guns usually carried 38-55 barrels. However, the individual that I purchased this firearm from stated that he “had the barrel "slugged" by a gunsmith and the caliber he came up with was slightly larger than 38-55”…?
I would appreciate any info anyone could provide on this gun. Specifically, who may have produced it, what year it may have been produced, what is the general value of these guns, and any other info that may be relevant.
I thank everyone for there input in advance, and would be happy to post any additional info or pictures upon request.
