If you look closely at the first picture posted you can see the round locking bolt.

Shrapnel,
I own a Fine George Daw Shotgun #526.
I would respectfully point out that Daw is very well known to collectors of vintage English shotguns. For example it feature as the gun on the cover picture of volume 1 of David Baker & I. M. Crudgingtons epic book [ runs to 3 volumes] The British Shotgun!
By the way, have you checked under the heel plates to see if the spare extractor and nipples. a feature of all early Daw guns are still in place?
You have A very nice Daw good to see you have put it to good use,regret mine languishes in my safe!

I believe Steve contacted them as he found out when the gun was made, to whom it was shipped and that it had been sent back to Daw for repairs at one time. I also have Daw's book on his patents...

Check out the latest Dave Carrie video. He visits the George Daw booth at the British Shooting Show. He gets to see some old black powder shell loading machines.
