LC Smith Long Range guns, all three of them are 32", F&F and factory 3-inch. Right one is a nicely restocked Specialty Grade I got recently and the others are all original Field Grades. Generally the LR guns are a bit lighter and more dynamic than a typical Super-Fox, also are somewhat less expensive nowadays. But just about as effective as a Super over the water and with modern soft non-tox ammo. That is, if the gent fires more than a shot or two at some ridiculous range and proclaims the Long Range isn't up to its period advertising hype. Serious experimenters will fire Supers and LR guns at increasing yardages and compare efficiencies. Same as when Capt Askins did that back in the 'twenties. Just sayin. :wink:

Always enjoyed your waterfowl gun comparisons in DGJ Frank

My duck quiver seems to have settled in on the Super Fox, an Elsie Longrange and the Ithaca Super 10

All effective guns if i do my part
