Is anyone aware of a book regarding the repair and servicing of LC Smith shotguns. I am a hobbyist and I really enjoy working on and hunting with these guns. I have some books on the history of LC Smith.
I would like something that details repair.

You might find "Plans & Specifications of the L. C. Smith Shotgun" by W. Brophy published by Brownells in 1981 useful if you can locate a copy - 240 plus pages of factory drawings.

Thanks guys I did get a copy of Brophy's book which is outstanding. Believe it or not I went to a farm auction with my neighbor this last fall and bought the book for $3.00. I was a very happy guy. I also bought an Elsie parts gun at the same auction, which as of this week is now a wonderful shooting 20 gauge.
I am looking for something like tech tips on repairing Elsies.
