Was at local shop,they have a "wells Fargo marked

[jrothWA]

L.C. Smith SXS with Damascus barrels and hammers.

BUT there is no top lever for loading and unloading the chambers.

Also, it had a new cross-bolt to hold the wrist together as it cracked and broke.

SOhow does it break open??

 

[SHR970]

They have a "No Way I Won't Pay"!

Don't know... don't care....I wouldn't even entertain the conversation.

 

[FrankenMauser]

Why don't you ask the LGS that owns it, instead of some random dudes on the interwebs, that have never seen said shotgun?

Could be broken.
Could be an under-lever.
Could be nearly anything...

If it's an OLD Baker, "made by L C Smith", pushing the front
trigger forward may unlock it. Other popular methods were
underlever and sidelever--but I don't know enough about old
L C Smiths to know if they are even an option.

I do know that there are far more GENUINE Wells Fargo!!
marked shotguns out there than were ever produced.

Along with London 1851 Colts, Walker Colts and a few others,
the counterfeits way outnumber the real McCoy. Caveat Emptor.

 

[Bill DeShivs]

Almost any "Wells Fargo" shotgun-isn't.

 

[FITASC]

Eve if it was, it is still only a $50 wall hanger

 

[dogtown tom]

Bill DeShivs Almost any "Wells Fargo" shotgun-isn't.

This.

Lots of fakes out there.

Buy the gun, not the story. What would you pay if it didn't say Wells Fargo? Pay that, or pass.
