Too the reason the Crown over Crossed Sidearms or HAL over Crossed Sidearms is absent is that Lindner just didn't finish it.

Ah, I now see the name V. Chr. Schilling atop the pattern welded tubes. I would say this isn't an inland offering or a gun for the German speaking market, but it does wear sling swivels. But I am convinced it came over in a Daly badged box.....
Or it very well could have been in the lot when right after the 1891 McKinley Tariff, when Lindner as a 1st Klass passenger boarded a watercraft to the New World. Onboard with his lot of New Guns, he coordinated a shooting competition and then declared his holdings as used under the U.S. of A. import laws. Then all the guns were taken to S,D&G's shop, cleaned, refurbed a bit & sold >>As New<<..... Easily could have been the case....
I have seen the log books I believe & will see if I can find the date.

>>Sincher<< doesn't make sense but >>Sicher<< would. But I still find it hard to believe it to be a War Trophy in that high condition?

On 2nd thought it just had to be an inland offering with reproofs, cheekpiece, sling swivels, ..... The toplever & church windows are different from Lindner's.

I think that eagle with the L may just be Gebruder Luck ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/kHT2xVf.png) Courtesy of German hunting guns archive

Yeah, that's it - Luck it is as I thought & Ford confirmed it in an earlier thread. But good find.
I was trying to chase down the Crowned script Ls, whatever, on the tubes of the Schilling.

So who did what on this schilling? All the shillings I have seen have been very impressive, I didn’t think he was just a middle man or retailer?
