1914 Advert which seems to give similar weight to the Sauer as well as the Daly gun.
I think this is a 1911 advert but from the early 1900s to WWI S,D&G sales must have increased so that H.A. Lindner couldn't keep pace and Charles Daly turned to Sauer to fill the void. By the start of WWI, it is said that there were no less than 300 hammerless scatterguns & bolt guns(I assume some were Dalys or Daly guns but who knows) on hand to handle and drool over. So it is very possible that S,D&G were looking for a lower priced hammerless Sauer gun and set the wheels in motion for the Sauer No. 0 but acquiring parts kits from Liege and then peddling the final product and that is how the odd Sauer triggerplate actions landed on these shores. Anyone know of a copy of their 300 +/- page catalogue?
Kind Regards,
