Thanks guys...it has been a good year on the acquisition side. The Daly though was in abused shape, it had a decent sleeve job, but some knucklehead tried to Machine jewel the flats and table, almost removing the Lindner provenance, in addition to cutting the butt short and adding a beautiful (gasp) whiteline pad. I sent the gun up to Mark Larson for a butt extension and grain match and checkered butt, that is flawless and stunning. The gun is an ejector, with incredible engraving, including a pointing setter and flushing quail gold ornament on the triggerplate, and a pair of gold snipe on the trigger bow. Cocking indicators and intercepting sears round out the package. the action is tight as new. The gun is now sort of a Resto-Mod, but beautiful. True south texas quail gun with IC and Imp, 24" tubes. I had it finished at 14 3/4" pull, and it already had high dimensions. I will try and take photos this weekend of that gun, and the "3" frame Parker. Just got the Daly back from Larson on Monday. He is a true magician!
