I left out the guns description. Looking at the barrel part is what really got my attention.

In an email to seller he stated he had measured many L.C. Smiths and other guns with .019 factory wall thickness.
I have measured many, not nearly as many as him but I have never measured one with walls that thin.
Gun has a straight stock, nice sharp engraving, but no other options for $5,750.00
Caveat emptor


Elsie 12ga with walls that thin? My guess would be a lot of honing.
