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?
Wrong again Drew.
Interesting that your comprehension skills do not allow you to read the posts as they progress and grip what is being said.
1. Nobody ever suggested free information, just the opposite, a fee schedule for partial information I think was the term.
2. Your website shows basic years of production for L.C. Smith produced guns,
EXCEPT the WIP serial number gun sequence shown on a previous post. Again, the question is, why is that.....?.....Inaccurate serial number information on your web site....?....An oversight....?.....Don't Care....?.....Too busy with a day job.....?.....
3. I did not initiate this thread, merely responded to it indicating this mans serial number does indeed exist and posted FACTS, then listened to you and your club cronies dive in with some facts and some b.s.....
4. You folks go on and on about the accuracy and informative nature of your organization
that you are so proud of, yet such a simple oversight was brought out by this thread......and you still don't appear to understand what the initial posters request was....i.e., your web site showed his serial number
did not exist for whatever reason.........
I am a member of the Cody Museum and appreciate their professionalism and wealth of factual knowledge and suggest anyone who needs L.C. Smith information contact the Cody Firearms Museum.
As Wonko says, 'Have a Day'.......
