any info on this gun? Is it from the Uberti days or the USA days?
I can't find any were on the gun that says Uberti or made in Italy.

Buckheart,
It is a very early, all Italian, US Patent FA gun.

The DFC guns were made for Davidsons back in the 90s. DFC stood for Davidsons Firearms Company

Davidsons? Well that is a new twist on DFC.

We had some other special numbers. Obviously Long Hunter (LH), Dallas Arms Collectors Asscoc (DACA), National Firearms Museum (NFM), NCOWS (didn't to many), and all the ones we did for a distributor in MA that I can't remember the name right now. These were the 200 each Storekeepers and Sheriff models in the 4 finishes (Rodeo, Rodeo II, Full Dome, and CC/DB).

Thanks Gary. Great info as always.

That MA distributor would be Lew Horton.
