My Crown Grade Smith broke a top lever spring at the Southern. I have fired 2500 rounds through it since the Southern of 07. When I bought the gun it was a basket case. The top lever gone left which for a Smith is a good many shots I had it restored to as new, but bet the smith did not replace that spring as it was serviceable at that time. This is a vent rib Trap gun, who knows how many times it has been shot. I plan to wear it out another time. Just keep shooting.
