L. C. Smith Screws

Posted by Sherman Mays on August 19, 2019, 9:20 am

I recently acquired five (5) L. C. Smith shotguns, all 12 gauge, three with ejectors and two with extractors. All with complete forearms, but no buttstocks - other than one with a brass plate around the pistol grip and held in place with wood screws. Four have different levels of engraving and one is plain (field grade?). I believe all of the pieces are present, but there are no screws! I am looking for a source of the necessary screws to completely assemble the guns. Is there a source for L. C. Smith screws?

I have had good luck with those found on ebay. I ended up buying several of each screw. Not sure if they are still listed on there but I found it easier to call the guy selling them and told him what I needed vs ordering off the website. A fellow member Louis Rotelli has also made me a few custom screws a year or so ago and they were exactly what I needed and of excellent quality. Good to hear from you! I had you restock a OO grade a couple of years ago and need to stop by your shop and see you again. Zachary

Good to hear from you. I am still making stocks for side locks, but not as many as I did a few years ago. Sure appreciate the info.

Connecticut Shotgun (Galazan)has some new screws in their gun restoration catalogue. I have bought some before and was happy with them.
