Thanks everyone for the replies and welcomes. Its good to hear from you especially the familiar faces and names.

As many of you know I am a big fan of 28 gauge sxs's and have hunted with most of them. I haven't tried the Marlin L C Smith, but plan to do so. I wondered if there were any known problems or issues with them. I would like to hear of any good or bad experience with them.

Thanks,
Riprap
