Awesome!!! I've seen pics of SN#1288 on some sight in the past. Only 7 digits later than mine.

I went back and looked...I see that it is you that has #1288!!!
Have you ever hunted with her? This was my first hunt with mine (#1281).
I'm very pleased with her in the field.

Chances are our guns were manufactured at the same time.
Do you think our guns are Lindner Guns? I know the SN falls into the range of Lindner manufactured guns, but it doesn't have the crossed pistols markings normally associated with HAL. I was thinking that they were probably produced when Lindner's father, George, was still running things. Any thoughts?

For the sake of comparison...

Mine has the crossed pistols. Haven't taken the gun out of the safe in at least a year.

Dean,
I your opion, would you say the barrels on the pictured gun are Bernard I?

In my opinion, yes they appear to be Bernard I as in the top barrel in the picture I posted.

Thank you!
