I got out my grandfathers Charles daly last night and tried to find out more about it. the first thing I noticed was the lack of a ser# there is a 5 and 3 stamped in the receiver plate. also the initials A.B. on the underneath side of the right barrel .The AB could be explained that was his initials.why no ser # ?? this is an old hammer gun. any ideas. Andrew

You have to be able to read the proof marks to figure out what you have. I beleave if it is a linder you will find two crossed pistoles under a crowm inside a small shield.
