I bet ya'll get fatigued with my many steel questions, but I was curious if I could get a sense of just how many tube types/steel makers that can be found on... Triebel Dalys
Not to hijack the post but the name Triebel you refer to, would they have been in Potsdam?
Don't every worry about hijacking one of my threads as that is about the state of it when it begins. I think you are referring to:
http://www.triebel.de/en/triebel/index.htm which was probably a Triebel offshoot as a firearms merchant. But I was referring to the Suhl Triebels such as Christopher(?), Christopher(?) Friedrick, Richard, A.& W. or K. & W., Otto, and I think Kerner had some association with a Triebel. But H.A. Lindner married Hedwig Triebel in the late 1870s and that combined with H.A. Lindner’s mother being Dorothea Kolb Lindner, a close relative of the engraver Hugo Kolb, possibly a sister????, formed a gunmaking network that somehow included V.C. Schilling. Remember it is always about economics. Schilling, along with Greenwood & Batley-Leeds, Mauser, National Arms and Ammo. Company Limited-Birmingham, Spangenbert & Sauer and a few others, had a feast in making the Model 1871 rifles for the arsenals at Danzig, Erfurt, Spandau and Amberg(Bavaria). This allowed Schilling to acquire his machinery. Spandau is/was an arsenal about 10 miles from Berlin and Spandau was the location to which the Potsdam efforts were moved. Model 1809s, or converted M 1809s, were made at Prussian Potsdam Arsenal, which is about 20 miles from Berlin, as well as Saarn(converted Monastery in 1815), Neisse, Suhl and Dresden(and maybe Gdansk-Poland).
But back to the post WWI Dalys, was there a transition back to the 48mm(standing breech to end of the watertable) from the 56mm/improved and modified A&D or were they mixed?
