Thanks "Canvasback" that was some of the politest coaching I've ever received. I did not have access to a computer this weekend, but I'll get some additional pictures posted. By the way... In the past I have used "photobucket" on the Fox Forum, but we seem to be having problems with it. Is there a certain software I need to post pictures? Jeff

Jeff, glad you took it in the spirit it was intended. To paraphrase the tag line of another member, we're glad you're here! I just back to my computer after a week in the north woods, limited cell reception and a iPhone to work with. So I'm clear on the difficulties that can arise. One has to use a hosting site to post a photo here. I am still using photobucket but I know it's become a problem for many users. Don't know how long I will continue. There have been a few threads recently discussing alternatives. I don't have experience with any but PB so am not in a position to recommend. But I believe Imgur is most often suggested. Here's a link to one thread: http://www.doublegunshop.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=484712#Post484712As you may have noticed from his posts, Raimey lifted the photos of your gun from the seller's site and emailed them to me. What a great looking gun!

As far as published Lindner/Daly information goes, the only place I'm aware of it is the Double Gun Journal. I have a mostly complete set (Missing the 1990 and 2016/17)and the first two Index and Readers, which go up to 2005 (IIRC) and can help direct you to issues that may be of interest. I was poking at the good folks at DGJ two weeks ago and they suggest it will be another year before the third Index and Reader is out. Can't wait because they sure make finding specifics easier!

The best source for Lindner Daly information is the relatively recent publication from the German Gun Collector Assoc., "Prussian Daly Imports" - http://www.germanguns.com/storejournals.htmlThe publication includes articles from the DGJ as well as a compilation of new and previously-published GCCA articles on Daly guns.

Thanks for the reminder about the publication, Ken. I just punched in my order with GGCA. Jon S. and I are on our way out to the gun club to shoot Lindner Daly guns as we speak. Let's get together soon. Bill Murphy

Thanks Ken!!!!! That's exactly what I'm looking for. I just placed an order for the Prussian Daily Imports publications. Too bad you guys live a long ways from Michigan or I would offer to take you out for a round of clays. Happy shooting! Jeff

I got the Daly reference yesterday. It is a wonderful book, but could be followed by a second edition that addresses serial numbers, chronological changes, and very big and very small Dalys. Anecdotal information about Daly owners of note would also be a good "filler".

Glad to help Jeff..
I agree with Eightbore that many additional articles are needed to cover additional Daly materials - serial numbering, the early years, big bores, pairs and unique guns, etc., etc.
