I seems kind of silly to call it an LC Smith... I can find few similarities with a real LC (unlike the Parker Repros which have interchangable parts with the originals). Outdoor Life just gave the Marlin a crappy rating and that is rare. Interesting, I think 3 of the 5 shotguns they reviewed are SxS... I bet we're gonna see a lot of double gun junk on the shelves soon.
