Are those intercepting sears?
So many guns, so little time!

For the record -- my Lindner Daly info:
On the Barrel flats from breech forward:
Left Barrel:
Small unidentifiable stamp mark just ahead for the ejectors
19 (20) -- the 20 is in a circle
U under a crown
Eagle beside a W under a crown
Eagle beside an S under a crown
On the barrel: Crossed pistols under HAL and an unidentifiable stamp mark about 1/2" above the HAL mark
Right Barrel:
19 (20)
U under a crown
Eagle beside a W under a crown
Eagle beside an S under a crown
604 (serial number)
On the barrel: Crossed pistols under HAL and an unidentifiable stamp mark about 1/2" above the HAL mark
Rib marked Charles Daly Fine Damascus Barrels. Action flats marked PRUSSIA and 604 with an eagle and a U under a crown.
Can anyone say when this gun may have been made? Guessing about 1895 to 1900?

Um, I would hazard a guess of 1893-1894, but then again what's a couple years. There should be a set of initials on either tube close to the lower rib.

Are those intercepting sears? Yes, overhanging scears w/ lower intercepting scears I believe. Almost all A&D Body Action Lindner Dalys were fitted with those. It is possible that some may not have the upper ones but still have the top screw? Cheers, Raimey rse

......... 604 (serial number)
On the barrel: Crossed pistols under HAL and an unidentifiable stamp mark about 1/2" above the HAL mark
Rib marked Charles Daly Fine Damascus Barrels. Action flats marked PRUSSIA and 604 with an eagle and a U under a crown. .........
Country of Origin Stamp "Prussia" should aide in the dating effort. I believe first the Country of Origin Stamp was Saxony; then Thuringia; and finally "Prussia" before they found their identity. Cheers, Raimey rse

From the 2nd sequence numbers in my mind, I'm going to guess your 20 bore Lindner Daly Nr. 604 wears the JW mechanic tubeset knitter's initials.

I should have included in the pics on the other thread of my 10g. the fact that it says PRUSSIA on the action flats.
