According to Russ about 30% of the screws in one of these will fit LC Smith Shotguns. Anyone else ever tried and see if they fit?

Best thing, take some screws out and if you have the book by Brophy "Plans and Specifications" you could compare them to the book. If you don't have the book, post the sizes of the screws and I/someone will let you know. David
