With all due respect to all---I really think that Black and White was the standard and seldom, if ever, was a Lindner gun finished any other way. My source is Georg Schilling, a good friend in Suhl, that knows from his family history and interest in metal colors.
I might also mention that of the 13 Lindner Dalys that I have own/owned, none were otherwise.
Granted that we can tell the difference in an English Brown and White (even after 100 years) and any Black and White that is turning, the original B & W color is there.
Best,
