The ejectors look to be the H&H or Southgate platform: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuIy2nRToaAI'm sure there is some Gordian Knot there but I believe H&H & Southgate are one in the same or similar. Dalys have the ole ejector in a box - Deeley: Nr. 4289 of 1886 or N 6913 of 1888. Cheers, Raimey rse

The engraving on the top of the tubes are rows of punches, the day stars, followed by Crown over E, or C or similar.

If I were you, I'd send some images to engraver & historian Hendrik Frühauf in Suhl as it is novel enough to possibly grab his attention. If anyone would know, he would.

Will do. So what’s the story on unmarked German guns with lots of bells and whistles. Most of what other people call guild guns are usually plain models from what I have ran across? Odd gun

Could have been a unknown young mechanic startup or maybe the client didn't want any sign of a maker's mark? Could be that the maker cobbled together an ensemble of components from various sources & worked off most of the marks?? But the adornment is quite unique.
Many times trade guns are the very best values.

Not to hijack the thread(& I'll gladly start a sole on in the general section) but for those Lindner - Daly aficionados that have fondly gazed @ the adornment on the wares of Charles Daly, below is a link to the culprit for the adornment being the master mechanic engraver Fritz Heimbeck, who is featured about 1/2 way down on info mined by Mr. Schuknecht. Capital effort on all fronts. I just cannot say enough about the preservation & propagation on info on German guns from the Golden Era of gunning. http://www.germanhuntingguns.com/about-the-guns/engraving-study/Cheers, Raimey rse

Gun came in at 6.5 lbs with pad. Had lots of crud on it. I believe somebody replaced the hinge pin it is super tight and on face, shame they didn’t know how to use a proper screw driver. Here is th clean gun. Gun is pretty nice hard to believe nobody wanted their name on it.

Indeed, that is some nice lumber. Any initials on the wood near the POW grip? Anything on or under the buttplate?
