Today at long last I tried out this LC Smith ”Long Range” 12-gauge gun on the sporting course at Rock Mountain. I’ve owned this one for a few years now but she’s been stuck in the back of the safe. 32-inch tubes with Full & Full chokes and weight at 8-3, made in 1927 after LCS started responding to sportsmen wanting lighter weight 3-inch duck guns. Ok, with hunting dimensions and those tight chokes she’s not the ideal sporting clays gun ….. but with a score of 52 ex 56 (all the paper shells I had) she certainly strutted her stuff today.
Check out the first pic with the factory burnishing still on the barrel breeches.
