My son has shot a LCS Uggie Gr I 20 ga the last two years w/ no problems whatsoever, and it was used when I bought it for him.
Always looking for small bore Francotte SxS shotguns.

Hi JC, I bought a used Grade II in 28 gauge. Liked it and shot it well from the start. I sold my older Uggie/Falcon .410 and bought a new Grade II .410. Haven't learned to shoot the .410 as well as the 28 but I'm working on it. They're well worth the price, IMO and the Grade II is worth the slight extra cost over the Grade I, again, JMO.

Gentlemen, thank you for your feedback.
So seven hundred for a NIB specimen would be reasonable.

$700 for an LCS Grade I/Uggie 30? I think that would be an excellent buy. The thing about Uggies is that there are quite a few of them on the used market, sold as Parker-Hales, Dickson Falcon, etc. They're often real bargains when compared to the new ones.

Larry, LCS is not in the picture here. I mentioned them only as a reference to the models available locally. In any case the price did sound attractive. There is an assortment including different chokes, stock configurations, ribs, some with third bite and engraving, some cc'd, some grey. All 16 bore, boxlocks, extractors, dt, auto safety, 70 cm barrels.
Thank you again for the info.
JC

JC,
Where are these at, if there are extras? Sounds like something I have been looking for at a quite reasonable price.

That does make it a bit more difficult and expensive.
Hope you find one that works for you.
