That's the best looking pointer I have ever seen engraved on a Lindner gun.

The tap, tap, tap is more than likely the effort of Heimbeck. Schoverling is long gone; Daly expired some 10 years prior and in 2 short years ALL will fall apart w/ the passing of H.A. Lindner's son in fierce fighting w/ the Brits. With the Witten tube steel, this may be the pinnacle of perfection of Daly's offerings never to be replicated again.

Dukxdog those are simply beautiful! Very impressive. I would love to get a 16ga like your 275. Lucky guy!

The 16ga up there is outstanding, but even knockabout sample from Zella-Mehlis or Suhl can be quite nice..... Schilling of Thuringen... While we may not know which of about dozen of Schillings put together or sold this the overall quality and condition is pretty good. Note sling swivels have nice finish and polish. Ok, never mind I have just located VCS monogram on the butt plate. It came from factory of Albert, Moritz, and Walter Schilling.

Yeah, V.C. Schilling was the component source and/or machine parts source. Interesting mark on the underside of the right tube just forward of the flats. This example was onhand in Schilling's shop in early 1893 and is devoid of the A&D Body Action APUN. So either the patent protection period was out or it was destined for a country where there wasn't a filed protection period for the APUN.

At first I had thought the intertwined letters were Ls but upon closer inspection it is interlaced Cs noting sourcing Charles Clément á Liege.

Dukxdog, how did you establish that the more highly engraved gun you picture is from 1912 ?

Question for those Lindner - Daly aficionados: Does every "true" Crown over Crossed Sidearms or Crown over HAL offering only have one screw visible on the floorplate?
