Ken, not sure I understand the question. It is nickel plated. Sorry I do not have a current photo and its not available for photo right now. I mean your Scott, which has a similar action to your Daly. As my Daly also is the Scott action, I'm trying to determine how they originally colored the steel buttplates. Regards Ken
I prefer wood to plastic, leather to nylon, waxed cotton to Gore-Tex, and split bamboo to graphite.

My Scott has a horn buttplate so no help there. It is from 1870.

I wonder if this is S,D&G's 1907 British patent #22946 for a single selective trigger with W. Fairweather as their agent? Anyone have the patent or has seen a S,D&G single trigger?
Kind Regards,

H.A. Linder Gewehrfabrik DRP Nr. 277253 of 1912 - Approved 1914 Schoverling, Daly & Gales Single Trigger Patent British No. 22946 of 1907 - filed by Wallace Fairweather, C.E., 65-66 Chancery Lane, London, W.C., and 62 Saint Vincent Street, Glasgow, Chartered Patent Agent I'm at a loss as to why the image is blue but neither is our culprit. Kind Regards, Raimey rse

Three observations. Since the trigger is still on the gun it must work or it would have been replaced long ago with a system which did work well. I wonder how easy that trigger is to operate in hunting conditions. And last I suspect it was devilishly complicated to make and fit.
Another invention which while technically sound just never took off. It is a very cleaver design attempt but with my fat fingers one which might work better on the skeet field than under hunting conditions. Wish it were mine though.

I believe it is still up for bid. So if you'll hold your hand high & long you might be the lucky new owner.
