Ask any collector of German shotguns about Charles Daly and
you will soon know that Daly guns were of the highest quality. None are more sought after than the “Lindner
Daly”, built by Heinrich August Lindner until about 1915. THIS EXAMPLE, SN1691 BUILT AROUND 1908, IS
VERY SPECIAL, BEING A 12GA. GUN WEIGHING A SCANT 5LBS. 8OZ….MUCH LIGHER
THAN MOST 28GA., 20GA., OR 16GA. GUNS!
IF YOU KNOW HOW DEADLY A 12GA. LIGHT LOAD CAN BE ON GAME, WITH A VERY
SHORT SHOT STRING, AND HOW PLEASANT IT IS TO CARRY 5 1/2LBS. OVER HILL AND
DALE, YOU CAN RECOGNIZE WHY THIS PRUSSIAN DALY IS SO SPECIAL. The sculpted frame and breech balls, the
detailed engraving, the scalloped action, the perfect wood to metal fit, the
classic drop points with superb checkering and gorgeous French walnut stock
come together to define a special gun.
Even the safety button is a work of art!
THE WOOD, BARRELS, ACTION, AND TRIGGER GUARD REMAIN IN FACTORY ORIGINAL,
UNTOUCHED CONDITION, the action still showing 50% fading factory case color,
clear sharp English scroll engraving, perfect screws, and elegant
sculpting. The 26” KRUPP STEEL barrels

matting sharp as new, dolls head rib extension perfectly mated to the action,
choked Cyl/LM with 2 ¾” chambers, ribs are tight, and they fit tight on the
