First I would like to thank you and revdocdrew for all the great info. You would be amazed at what type of guns you can find at estate auctions arround here. I got interested in old shotguns in mid 07 and since then have picked up over 30 from estate auctions ( even one old Parker Bros. ). On the A1, the fellow wanted $2000.00 for it but after I convinced him I was just a poor country boy I bought it for $1500.00. That was this morning before I read your post as I had never seen an L.C. Smith with this much engraving on it and assumed it was worth the money. My wife does not agree. I don't know how to put pictures on the computer but have a neighbor that does. Give me your email address and I will have her send some pictures of the gun and then see what you think.

Thanks Again

Ernie
