LC Smith hammer gun, not a Fulton. Did they even make hammer guns under the Fulton name?

How confusing is this Destry?
Please DO NOT POST if you are seeking the VALUE of your L.C. Smith. Instead, visit the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) and read "What is my L.C. Smith worth?". (Because most are hidden sale offers) And this? "Please read before posting - FULL NAME required" Don't take much "infinite wisdom" to read the header on the Forum http://members.boardhost.com/lcsmith/ IF you have a L.C. Smith F (or later H) grade (not Field) hammer gun - 3,983 were manufactured. IF you have a Gladiator Field hammer gun for Sears - 114 were manufactured; all 30" barrels. There were no Hunter Arms Fulton boxlock hammer guns

I have a nice LC 16 hammer. According to Mike Harris at the L. C. Smith Collectors..it was the 33rd one that they have info on. I had another later gun with steel barrels that I sold years ago..I don't think there is a list by gauge..

the Hunter Brothers bought out LC Smith and moved production from Syracuse to Fulton - so Elsies were made in both places

Drew... I don't have the book. Does it give a production figure ?.......I was not using the 33 as a production figure...just the ones that the LC Club has been told of by members...Jerry.
