Re: ID a LC Smith-Hunter Arms Coach Gun
You can request a research letter to confirm original barrel length; but in my opinion those barrels are not original and have been cut. The "gold" or brass plated triggers, hammers, and top lever represent some form of aftermarket "custom work"; as Hunter Arms did not pimp out guns in this manner. If this kind of thing strikes your fancy, then buy the thing; but you'd be wise to price it no higher than a parts gun. Cut barrels have a major negative impact on a vintage gun's value.
