I believe this Daly has intercepting sears. The top screw or pin is the sear and the one located at the rear bottom is the interceptor, as seen in this picture. Overhanging sears have the great mechanical advantage of leverage. Lefever used the overhanger exclusively. Oops, Doug Mann corrected me below. This gun does not have an intercepting sear. The bottom screw holds the sear lever.



And here is a Sauer with overhanging sears but not intercepting:
