Mrs W.C. Shattuck is in the background; Mrs Sophrona Johnston in the foreground with her MC stocked Smith, at the Minneapolis Gun Club Grounds on the Como-Harriet Streetcar line Mpls MN. Mrs. and Mr Johnston both used Smith guns at the 1898 GAH.
After introduction of the Double Barrel Trap gun in 1920, the 'Trap Package' included a flat beavertail forend (Schnabel forend available in 1922) with the reinforced barrel lug, Automatic Ejectors, Hunter One-Trigger, standard recoil pad, and two ivory sights. A Monte Carlo stock could be specified also.
The ventilated rib on the double barrel gun was introduced in 1925. Dr Jim's "L.C. Smith Production Records" lists 1,298 Specialty Grades with a VR.
