I can't remember if PeteM, or someone else, sent this to me or if I found it in a quick search but it is a Daly 10 bore from the mid to late 1870s with a metal buttplate and interesting forend lug:

Usually, but as with German longarms there are always exceptions, 3 initials sometimes denotes the maker and his area/city. But for now and in this case I would attribute the work to one of the Werner boys, specifically Christian Werner. Now there were 2 Christian boys with one being a polisher and I guess his middle name to be Fredrich, the first name of a few of the Werner clan. If someone would post the pic of the initials I would greatly appreciate it.
Kind Regards,
