CHARLES DALY (LINDNER) DIAMOND GRADE BOXLOCK EJECTOR GAME GUN.

CHARLES DALY (LINDNER) DIAMOND GRADE BOXLOCK EJECTOR GAME GUN. SN 858. Cal. 12 Ga. 2-1/2″ Chambers. 28″ Dovetailed, striking Bernard/ Etoile patterned Damascus barrels are engraved “Charles Daly Extra Fine Damascus Barrels Diamond Quality” on unmatted portion of herringbone matted concave game rib, with square crossbolt extension. Bbl flats are stamped with German imperial proofs, and SN. Lindner crossed pistol “HAL” logos are on bottoms of bbls. “82” is stamped on bottom of right bbl. Case hardened, scalloped-backed boxlock action features automatic safety (“Safe” inlaid in gold), pin cocking indicators, square crossbolt third fastener, and intercepting safety sears. Action is filed with serpentine fences, and engraved with very well cut tight scroll with geometric borders outlining pair of curly-coated retrievers on bottom of action. Sides of action are engraved with “Charles Daly” in scrolled ribands. There is a vignette of three gallinaceous fowl on trigger guard bow, with SN on tang. Nicely marbled and stump figured European walnut semi-pistol grip buttstock measures 14-1/8″ over original ribbed horn buttplate, and features typical high grade Daly horn button pistol-grip tip and checkered side panels with elongated teardrop drop points. Flat top checkering is at 22 LPI with line border. There is a vacant silver oval on toe line. Matching splinter ejector forend has horn tip and Deeley release. Bore diameter: left -.724, right -.725. Bore restrictions: left -.030, right -.013. Wall thickness: left -.034, right -.035. Drop at heel: 2-5/8″, drop at comb: 1-1/2″. Weight: 6 lbs. 7 oz, LOP 14-1/8″. CONDITION: Very fine, as found. Bbls retain 85-90% original black and white pattern, thinning and browning from handling and use, near forend. Action retains 40-50% original case color, thinning to a very pleasing silver-gray on bottom and on beads. Trigger guard is mostly silver. Stocks retain most of their original oil finish, slightly worn from handling and use. Action is very slightly loose with forend removed, nearly tight with forend installed. Bbls are slightly off face. Ejectors are in time. Bores are bright and shiny, with some fine pitting evident toward breeches, mostly in left bbl. A lovely unmolested gun, in need of a simple re-joint. 4-40947 MGM170 (4,500-6,500)
