Gentlemen,
As most of you gentlemen know my family members are serious Grouse hunters,
and we do hunt a lot of other upland birds also. My brother usually uses his Browning 28 gauge guns most of the time. However I know he would like a nice 16 gauge SXS double gun to hunt Pa early Grouse & Woodcock. What I have arranged to due is gift him the fully restored Special Order 16 gauge L.C. Smith double gun I purchased this year. This early gun was Special Ordered with 2 3/4" chambers, so he will be able to use both the 2 1/2" & 2 #/4" shells as he bird hunts.
I love giving people in our family fantastic Grouse guns for Christmas, my nephew was gifted a similar L.C. Smith 16 gauge gun last Christmas.
all the best,

My brothers L.C. Smith 16 gauge Christmas Present.

BB,
Sorry to hear bout your brother, wish I had another good 16 gauge gun to send up to you, unfortunately I do not have another Christmas present. I hope you are getting thru the loss of your brother. I know there are no words to make it easier, he will be waiting for you on the other side.
all the best,
