Default Modern VS Vintage

For what it's worth, there are no "Repro" LC Smiths. There are either originally designed American made shotguns, or as Mr. Dudley mentioned, cheaply made non-side-lock Italian knock-offs. Unless I'm mistaken, this competition is for original American made either LC Smith of Parker Brothers shotguns. Part of the challenge is getting out there and smacking targets with guns made with vintage tooling and materials. Repro or CSMC guns don't fit that bill, or do they?

Just my two cents. There's plenty of venues/contests out there for guns of modern manufacture. To date, The Parker/LC Smith Challenge Event hasn't been one of them. No rules against their use out on the course, just in the Challenge Event.

This is not to say that the rules can't be changed after consideration by both Boards, but that's pretty unlikely at this late date for this years event.

Hoping everyone a safe trip and a great weekend.

John
