Daly Gun #1981 - 12 bore with Crown over Crossed Pistols & initials HB

Dropped in Cabelas Witicha, Kansas Friday & the Charles Daly double Nr. 1981 was still there. Little rough shape & a little loose.

Kind Regards,

Raimey,

#1366 is a Charles Daly Lindner marked(crown/pistols) 10 ga. 32" Damascus hammergun. Game scene engraved. Signature Lindner wide forearm lug. The barrels are marked "AS". Weighs 9-95.

#2024 is Charles Daly Lindner marked(crown/pistols) 10 ga. 32" Damascus, modestly engraved (no critters) hammergun. Lindner wide forearm lug. Barrels are marked "RS". Weighs 8-13

#470 is a Charles Daly 10 GA. Damascus hammergun. No wide forearm lug. NO Lindner marks, no barrel flat marks, but on the barrels in the space between the floorplate through-lug and the hinge there is a "R" under what appears to be a crown. Next to that is a mark the looks like a "7" overprinted with a "2". If I knew what to do I would send photos. Kids will be here next week so I will send pics then. The pin configuration on the locks looks just like #15251. Seems to be a very high condition high quality gun, but, I think not a Lindner made gun Weighs 9-11

#1105 (second serial number set) circa about 1901 is a Charles Daly 12ga Diamond quality hammergun. It is marked HAL/pistols with 28" Whitten steel barrels. They are marked "RS". The action is secured with a Jones underlever. It has a straight (English) stock with no cast although the trigger are set up for a lefty. Everything about this gun is correct. The only other underlever Dalys I have seen are the famous 8 bore and 4 bore duo that have sold several tines for big bucks. Those gun were built a few years apart and this gun was built during that gap. It weighs 7-11

That's all the Daly hammerguns I can talk about. I can do a little better on hammerless.

I'll be glad to send pictures when the technology troops arrive.
Merry Christmas,
Jon

Many thanks Jon. I'd fancy seeing any & all images you might capture. The Daly Gun Nr. 470 sounds interesting & like a wildcard.

Kind Regards,

Anyone think the above Otto Bock Berlin Nr. 9159 is Lindner-esk?

I've heard of a Charles Daly Nr. 10078 - 20 Bore - 28" tubes purported to have been manufactured by HWZ - Hermann Weibrauch Zella - Mehlis at the recent Beinfeld / Antique Arms Show this past weekend. Asking price was North of $40K U.S. of A.

Case is stamped "Martin J. Alger, Jr. Pelham, New York", so Alger might be the or one of the case makers.

Anyone have any images of the marks?

Cheers,

Odd. Apparently one of my childhood homes was a few blocks from Mr. Alger's residence in Pelham. Not exactly a hub of gunmaking in the 1990's.

Looks like George Reeb, whom I believe to be the good friend of Bob Jones, is selling his collection? Or maybe his heirs & assigns:

Interesting 1930 reprint @ Galazan:

http://connecticutshotgun.co/charles-daly-label/

I wonder if on the trade label @ the bottom that they misspelled Suhl(Shul)?

Lots of trade labels too.....

Anyone see where Modell's Sporting Goods(since 1889) faltered earlier this year & sought protection? I believe this to be the same Modells

You are correct Raimey. The recent Modells and the Henry Modell store circa 1900 is the same organization. Just some corporate name changes over the years. My time in the sporting goods industry brought me close to these guys. They liked their history.
