Wouldn't hurt to check the value online at "The Blue Book of Guns".Just picked up a Lc Smith 12ga field grade sxs, was traveling by SC and got it for $500 (good deal for lgs I think?)
Excited to take it out but I don’t really understand what ammo I can and cannot shoot through it, my understanding is that I can’t use the higher pressure loads and should stick to birdshot? View attachment 296819
Thanks bull,I would only shoot shorty shells in this Smith sxs, the chambers are 2 9/16 and 2 3/4 shells will probably get stuck.
They can't fully open all the way and can make to much pressure.
Go to utube and see how to make your own blackpowder shells, very easy.
Beautiful shotgun!
What year is it?Thanks bull,
I’ll look into it. I didn’t realize how old it was till I asked the salesperson if it came with chokes.
I think 1924? Serial is in the FW 72XXX area. I found this website. http://www.lcsmith.org/shotguns/manufacture.htmlWhat year is it?
That’s awesome, sadly it’s not a 410 or that would’ve been the best deal of the year.I ordered a research letter for mine about 8 years ago.
I've got a 1911 LC Smith Monogram, in 20ga.That’s awesome, sadly it’s not a 410 or that would’ve been the best deal of the year.
Nice!I've got a 1911 LC Smith Monogram, in 20ga.
Only 51 Monograms made in 20ga.
Worth a little bit more than $500.
Man—-wonder where the at wood came from? Any clue where Browingbwas sourcing back then? Austria? Germany?...And this here Belgian made Browning A5 in 16ga. I had bought an SKB Orion in 12 ga with a full set of Briley chokes from him about a year ago and his grandson threw a fit about it so we made a deal for a swap on this unit. I love the wood on this one.
