Why are you so angry Doug? You obviously appreciate Smith guns, and have knowledge that you could share. Why not join and work to make the LCSCA better? Come to the Annual Meeting, express your opinions, and enjoy The Southern? Or work with Dr Jim and write a "Smith Gun Identification & Serialization" book?
I can't speak for Dr Jim, but he is in a difficult position. Why should he provide information to posters of the Forum, for free, when others have paid for a Research letter; information for which Cody also requires membership or a fee?
