    Mark: a better question might be "What should I consider before buying a vintage L.C. Smith shotgun?" Please check "General Information" in the FAQs on the Home Page.

    The short version is that the gunsmithing cost of returning an abused lower grade Smith to safe and usable condition is very likely going to cost more than the (final) worth of the gun. If the outside looks bad, the innards are probably worse
