A slight oversight as I missed this thread for a time.















According to Jeff's list 108xx would date to circa 1904. This also pairs well with all of S,D&G's Sauer adverts at the time. I have wondered if Lindner & Sauer had crossed sourcing lines for effort. There may be boxlocks with upper & lower scears earlier than 106xxx, but the block of S,D&G imports may have begun in that block.

Kind Regards,
