This 1913 Hunter Arms L.C. Smith in 12 gauge is a classic American upland bird gun built in the golden era of side-by-side craftsmanship. With its 26" barrels and traditional field configuration, this double gun is purpose-built for fast-moving upland game—quail, grouse, and woodcock—where instinctive shooting and quick follow-up shots matter most.

The 26" barrels deliver a balanced, lively swing that sits right in the sweet spot between speed and control. It shoulders quickly and tracks naturally, making it ideal for snap shooting in tight cover. The pistol grip stock and dual trigger setup give the shooter precise control over choke selection and shot placement.

L.C. Smith shotguns are known for their unique sidelock design and refined craftsmanship. Built by Hunter Arms during the pre-WWI era, this example reflects a time when American doubles were made with pride and durability in mind. The tang safety, solid lockup, and classic walnut furniture all reinforce its reputation as a dependable field companion.

Chambered for 2.75" shells, this 12 gauge handles standard field loads with authority. The fixed modified and full chokes provide a versatile spread—modified for mid-range flushing birds (30–40 yards) and full for longer shots beyond 40 yards. This setup makes it highly adaptable across a variety of hunting conditions.

Hunter Arms L.C. Smith shotguns hold a respected place in American firearms history, especially among collectors of early 20th-century sporting arms. This 1913 production piece offers both functional field performance and collectible appeal—an authentic slice of American upland hunting heritage.
