Hi Charlie,
I am certain that there are other double-gunsmiths who are skilled but Brad is who get's my fun money! He always treats me well and on the few occasion that I had a concern, he happily redid the work to my satisfaction. Restoring a 110+ year old firearm is as much art as science.
The Grade 2 LC Smith is choked a little too tight for the Nice Shot that I use. I shoot geese for the freezer on my pond with 10 gauge Parkers with barrel constrictions of .030" out to 60 yards. I have put down 5 (in early season) with my 1 3/8 oz load of Nice Shot #2 more than once! I used this Smith trying to put down a group of geese at 55 yards and ended up with one very dead goose. I think this gun would truely be a 70 yard gun if I could hit anything at that range!!!
