I have have only had one Daw in the shop but it was an extraordinary gun. It was a .50 cal percussion gun, gifted from Prince Albert to the Bishop of Bond ST(William Bishop who ran Westley Richard operation in London) and used in a deer park. It was a lovely rifle. Daw was a great maker and under appreciated in my eye. Wonderful gun you have and you look like a happy man. Enjoy it in good health.

All you have to say is George Daw we already know its high quality.  He built some beautiful muzzleloaders.

Beautiful gun! How do guns like this lock up? The one underbit that is activated by the piece that wraps itself under the trigger guard. J.D. Dougall maybe?

Diggory Hadoke's book on hammer guns has the same type of Daw gun on page ten. He describes it as a "rounded bar bolting system ". Beautiful gun.
