L.C. Smith Syracuse guns - 06/06/17 03:41 PM
If anyone has one of these shotguns in the low 16000 serial number range could you verify that your lock/s do or do not have a sear spring.
I just recently purchased the first hammerless Syracuse L.C. Smith, serial number 16000. This has a sear spring and the sear is located above the mainspring.
This gun is a 10 gauge with 30" barrels, it does not have L.C. Smith engraved on the locks and does not have a makers name on the barrels. It is a Quality 2 and also does not have any patent dates on the receiver.
