HAVE AN OLDER DAISY WITH A LEVER LIKE A MODEL 29 BUT ONLY MARKED DAISY ON THE SIDE AND THE BULLS EYE ON OTHER SIDE,NOTHING ON TOP OF BARREL.CAN ANYONE ID?
Hi
Thinking it might be a no 11 model 24 or a no 12 model 24.I believe the rifle should only be about 31 1/2 inches long.Think the no 12 is single shot and the no 11 a repeater 350 shot.The no 11 wasnickel and the no 12 was blued

Hey Guy
I would not leave it black.I have a nickel plated rifle and the lever has no finish on it.I think it was plated at one time as when I took it off the part that goes into the receiver looked like it had some nickel left on it.Most of the old cast iron levers you see on the old rifles have no finish left on them even if thet were plated.I would take off the black paint and leave it like that.Hope this helps.
