Eagle Grade LC Smith

Posted by Russ Jackson on January 11, 2023, 5:53 pm

Good Evening all , I am looking for some information about Barrel Stamps ? I have a 1929 Eagle Grade that is in very high condition , I purchased a letter on this gun some time ago and it is mentioned in the letter the chokes are Right Barrel IC and Left Barrel Mod. ,the gun is in fact correct in every way to the letter ! The Chokes are stamped on the bottom of the Barrels ,Right is stamped IC and the Left is stamped Mod. ! I have read in my LC Smith book the barrels weren't stamped could this have been ordered this way or something the factory just did with the Eagle Grades maybe ???? Any info. will be appreciated ! Thank You all in advance ! Russ

This LCS SXS must have been a special order gun to be in this configuration from the factory.... The barrels were stamped because this was not how the chokes would normally be.... That is my opinion but I could be wrong..... posted by Jent.

Thank You Gent ,I appreciate your opinion ,it says in the letter where the gun was shipped and one of the fellas on the Parker Site mentioned that was a place of business but they didn't deal in guns so it was probably the owners Personal Gun so that would make sense !!!
