I know that the rejuvenated W.C. Scott shipped guns to Malin in the early 80s. If you haven't already done so you can contact Gallyon & Sons at sales@gallyon-and-sons.co.uk since they hold the records for W.C. Scott. I got a quick reply when I asked about a Malin gun. They only have very basic info on the Scott guns from the 80s. Of course this doesn't get you any closer to the trade label, but you'll know the date the gun shipped from the factory at least.
