I have seen one Charles Smith and Son SLE and it was the very best quality with very good game scene engraving. Top notch gun all the way.
Thankyou Daryl. Do know when this maker was building guns? What is the history behind the firm? This hammergun that I am looking at....I really believe you would be fooled into thinking that it was a Purdey, until you see the name on the locks and barrels, its that good, like you said...the very best quality. The scroll work is fantastic, the sculpted hammers, the fit and finish...everything is top notch.
I would love to know more about this maker.
