The other marks may be Cavemen. I'm not sure that Wildmann/Hercules needed a staff and most images show a staff of sorts that has one end larger than the other & it is contoured like a club. Folklore has it Hercules killed a viper in the cradle, worked over a wild boar or 2 and may have slain some of his enemies with that jawbone of a jackass like Samson. I don't think he preferred a staff. I'm curious if some have considered the U xxx an Untersuchungsstempel or inspection type number. On the Sauer, I guess the principle of Ockham's Razor might be best and it is what it is upon face value. Kind Regards, Raimey rse

It has more features and engraving than a model 14.The barrels have the inlaid Sauer medal and a different pattern on the rib. The finishes are near 100%, it does not appear to have been fired. I finally measured the chambers and they are 2 1/2 inch. Ser # says probably 1903 manufacture. A very interesting Charles Daly! Thanks to all who are sending me data!

Happy New year to you Fellas & my wish is that you spend as much time in the bush as you can stand. Kind Regards, Raimey rse
