L.C. Smith 20 Gauge – 5LBS. 14OZ. ULTRALIGHT, NICE vintage firearms inc
Description: General Specs: LC Smith, Year 1924, 20 Gauge, 5lbs 15oz, M/F, LOP 14", DAH 2 1/2", DAC 1 3/8" Serial Number: FW66343 There were a LOT of Field Grade 20ga. Elsies made over the years. Most are nice, but not special, guns. L.C. Smith 20ga. guns are all built on the common Featherweight frame, but most often the guns can be a bit on the heavy side, often weighing close to 6 3/4lbs. even with 26" barrels. Every-once-in-a-while I find one that is dynamic in hand, with lighter than usual weight, usually guns with the lower rib from the 1920's or earlier. This gun, snFW66343 made in 1924 is just such a gun. Weighing 5lbs. 15oz. and balanced perfectly 1/4" ahead of the hinge pin, it is a rare find amongst L.C. Smith 20ga. guns being superlight and having awesome modern stock dimensions. Still has 90% factory case color and original barrel blue, perfect screws, no cracks, and nice wood as well. Most guys buying guns of this nature are shooter/collectors that will use the gun for upland birds and clays. I cannot think of a better suited, or more affordable gun to do that with, as most all of your classic American side x sides in 20ga. have gone up quite a bit in price and are becoming hard to find, especially guns with LOTS OF FACTORY ORIGINAL CONDITION. This gun has 26” barrels choked M/F, mirror perfect bores, with the barrels tight on face and hinge pin like a new gun, with the top lever way right of center. These guns are going up in value as you enjoy their use, so you won't lose money should you ever decide to sell this nice little piece. The price is affordable, the gun is attractive and 100% functional, and you can shoot RST spreader loads to make it shoot like she was IC/M for greater versatility. Great way to get into the small bore vintage double gun chase without breaking the bank. Thanks for looking.
