The gun that surprised me was the LC Smith 410 (Lot 2267). It brought $16800 with the 20% premium. I have one that is as good or maybe alittle better with 26 inch barrels and improved and modified chokes that I like better. I have followed these guns for years and have never seen one bring that kind of money.

John, I did not see the gun in person, but it looked to be in great condition. I have one in similar condition and am glad to see you get that one. Congratulations on your purchase!
