It is C&R for sure, but the pictures are way too small to tell you much more about it.Always looking for vintage Winchester and Marlin lever action rifles. Looking to sell? Know of one for sale? Drop me a line!

The pictures are too small to discern any detailed info about your shotgun.
AFAIK...
L.C. Smith (Syracuse, NY) made shotguns from 1880-1889.
L.C. Smith (Fulton, NY), owned by Hunter Arms Company, made shotguns from 1890-1945.
L.C. Smith (Fulton, NY), owned by Marlin Firearms, made shotguns from 1945-1951.
L.C. Smith (New Haven, CT), owned by Marlin Firearms, made shotguns from 1968-1973.
From 2004-2010, Marlin Firearms imported Italian made shotguns that were marked/sold as L.C. Smith shotguns.
All of the L.C. Smith shotguns that were made in the USA are now C&R due to age and all of the shotguns made in Syracuse NY are considered antique firearms due to being made before 01-01-1898.
Before 1890, all of the L.C. Smith shotguns were chambered in 12 Gauge or 10 Gauge.
In 1891, L.C. Smith started making shotguns in 16 Gauge.
In 1908, L.C. Smith started making shotguns in 20 Gauge.
In 1926, L.C. Smith started making shotguns in .410 bore.Last edited by Quiet; 04-15-2024, 2:21 PM.sigpic
