So,

Do you think we can attribute both Joe's gun as well as 441's locks to Scott? If so, that would mean that the five digit serial number guns as well as at least some of the three digit guns like 441 parts were still being sourced from Birmingham? Since they lack the first Lindner mark can they be attributed to Georg? Dating them to prior to Heinrich taking over and the use of the Crossed Pistols and Crown mark?

It appears that the break between Georg and Heinrich may occurred in the four digit range (between 1569 and 1662) indicated by the use of the first Lindner mark, attributed to Heinrich.

Regards
Ken

I prefer wood to plastic, leather to nylon, waxed cotton to Gore-Tex, and split bamboo to graphite.
