Skip, thanks for the reply. I really enjoy the L.C. It was made in 1930 and somewhere along the line it was redone. Wood and metal. I know this effects the collecing value but I bought it as a shooter. I believe the chokes were opened up since it is skt1&skt1. It has the typical cracked wrist that was repaired. Mechanically very tight with mirror barrels. I paid $600.00 for it and was not sure if I got a good deal but it was like a puppy that finds you and you have to take it home.
