LC Smith 10 gauge

[Craig Larter]

I am kind of a 10ga LC Smith nut, your Elsie appears to be a Quality 2 grade, the barrels are "good" damascus not twist. It was an $80.00 gun back in 1886. Enjoy.

A sweet ten Syracuse gun. Post your serial number and specs on the L.C. Smith forum so they can add it to the Syracuse Smith serial number list.

Whats the difference between Quality 1 and Quality 2 ?
I "assumed" since this one has virtually no engraving it was Quality 1 ?

The picture isn't the greatest but it's of the pattern of the steel on the barrels from beneath the forend .
