Hello Stephen Bowes, You should purchase a letter on this L C Smith 2E with the T..... The "T" usually indicates a factory TRAP GUN ..... BUT .... a factory TRAP GUN would almost never never never have 26 inch long barrels .... BUT .... We have all learned to never say never ...... You might have a very unusual LCS shotgun if, BIG IF, the 26 inch barrels are original ...... posted by Jent Mitchell on August 17th of 2019.
