Description: CHARLES DALY PRUSSIAN MADE EMPIRE QUALITY 410 GA  26" BARREL EXTREMELY RARE. THIS PRUSSIAN CHARLES DALY EMPIRE GRADE IS EXQUISITE IN EVERY SENSE OF THE WORD. THE SHOTGUN FEATURES A SINGLE SELECTIVE TRIGGER. THE BARREL SELECTOR IS LOCATED TO THE LEFT SIDE OF THE TRIGGER. WITH A LONG TRIGGER GAURD EXTENDING DOWN INTO THE WRIST OF THE SHOTGUN.  WE BELIEVE THE GUN TO MADE BY J.P. SAUER AND SOHN. FROM THE RESEARCH THAT HAS BEEN DONE, WE HAVE COME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT GUN WAS MADE IN APPROXIMATELY 1934.  THE SHOTGUN FEATURES AN ENGLISH STRAIGHT STOCK WITH VERY HIGHLY FIGURED EUROPEAN WALNUT.  THE GUN HAS A SILVER-STYLE RECOIL PAD. THE GUN DOES HAVE A GOLD STOCK OVAL INLAYED IN THE STOCK FREE FROM ENGRAVING.  I AM NOT SURE WHEN THE PAD WAS INSTALLED.  THIS SHOTGUN HAS A SOLID FLAT FILED RIB WITH AUTHENTIC IVORY FRONT BEAD AND MID RIB BEAD. THEY APPEAR TO BE ORIGINAL TO THE GUN.  THIS SHOTGUN FEATURES A 3 PIECE FOREARM. THE GUN IS EXQUISITELY ENGRAVED WITH TRADITIONAL GAME SCENES WITH 2 DOGS AND BIRDS ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE RECEIVER, AND THE LEFT SIDE FEATURES DUCKS IN FLIGHT AND A SMALL AREA OF QUAIL ENGRAVED NEAR THE FRONT PART OF THE SIDE PLATE. THE REST OF THE RECEIVER IS FILLED WITH A BEAUTIFULLY DONE ORDAMENTAL VINE-STYLE SCROLL WITH FULL COVERAGE ENGRAVING.  MANY OF YOU ALREADY KNOW I HAVE BEEN DOING THIS MY ENTIRE LIFE. I CAN SAY WHOLEHEARTEDLY THAT I HAVE NEVER SEEN A PRUSSIAN CHARLES DALY IN A 410, ESPECIALLY IN AN OVER-UNDER.  THE OVERALL EXTREMELY RARE PRUSSIAN-MADE OVER-UNDERS ARE RARE IN ITSELF, BUT TO BE THIS HIGHLY FINISHED AND A 410 IS NOT ONE YOU WILL PROBABLY EVER SEE IN A LIFETIME.  I AM INCLUDING A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE PRUSSIAN-MADE CHARLES DALY SHOTGUNS AND THE GRADES ASSOCIATED TO THEM.  Charles Daly was born in New York City on October 12, 1839. Around 1875 in New York City, Charles Daly and August Schoverling began importing firearms into the United States, primarily from the city of Suhl in what was then Prussia.[1] Manufacturers for Daly at that time included Heym, Shiller, H. A. Lindner, Sauer, J&W Tolley of England, Newman (of Belgium) and Lefever Arms.[2] Charles Daly combination gun advertisement (1887) In 1887, Schoverling and Daly were joined by a third partner named Joseph Gales. The company began doing business as Schoverling, Daly, and Gales before settling simply on the name Charles Daly.[3] The original Charles Daly died suddenly in 1899, but the business continued with his son, Charles Howard Daly, taking his place until 1919, when Henry Modell purchased the partnership. The new owners continued importing firearms and marketing them with the Charles Daly name until the late 1920s when the company was sold to the Walzer family, which owned Sloan's Sporting Goods in Ridgefield, Connecticut. The Walzers established a branch of Sloan's in New York City known as Charles Daly & Company.
