I don't have much to go on besides these pics but what would a guy value this at? Small toe repairs and light crack at wrist repaired well.

Brian: I collect 10ga Elsies, -----it also appears the stock has been cleaned and finish added. I would place a value of $1500. to $1800.

Very nice !
I had said I was done buying Smiths and even though I have a Quality 2 10 gauge I'd be more then happy to add that one to my accumulation :whistle: |
Nice LC. Chain Damascus is one of my favorites. Why Parker didn't add them to their guns I have no idea.

Brian after sleeping on it I think I was to low on my estimate. I am thinking more like $1800 to $2500. The beautiful barrels and good cc make up for the wood issues. But it is just a guess without having the gun in hand. Craig

Say hello to my new friend, I appreciate the input as LC guns are not in my wheelhouse of gun values and collecting. It is very nice in hand, tight action, the wood is better in person and the barrels.......oh man the barrels!!!

Congratulations!
That is one handsome gun!! And a 10 ga, to boot! Very nice.
|
Good score!
I like it very much! |
I would have had trouble walking away from that one.

Gotta love those Chain Damascus barrels. I've seen quite a few Ithacas with them, and I have an early BE-Grade Remington with them --

Brian: Very nice gun and I am glad you own it. I had a Canadian owner contact me through the LC Smith Collectors Forum about 5 years ago regarding a family No.2 10ga Elsie in about the same condition. I believe they were from Ontario, St. Lawrence River area, I wonder if it's the same gun. Anyhow since others are posting pictures of their Elsie chain barrels here is a picture of my 10ga No. 3 straight grip in nice condition. Craig

It's the same gun I bet, it came from the same area sold to a family friend then to me.

Somewhat rare and great gun
Just remember Brian, 10 gauge LC's are rare. They didn't make very many of them. It may be a long long time before you see another one that nice.
Great find!:bowdown: |
I covet the 10 gauge Elsie!. I also am a collector of 10 gauge Elsies ......and Parkers.....and...... I like 10 gauge sxs shotguns. I wish that any of my guns looked as good as yours.
Remember that the gun should not be a safe queen-go out and shoot it |
