Default Re: old shotgun ???

Well, it is an L and L.C. Smith shotguns are well known and documented.

Note that the barrels are Damascus ("twist") and IMHO should be admired and not fired, and certainly not fired with smokeless powder loads. Some experts claim that well-made Damascus barrels (and L.C. Smith barrels are of high quality) can be safely fired with even modern Magnum loads. Others, some with missing fingers, would disagree.
