I've just purchased a well used Smith Carbine. According to the date code it was made in 1991, so it has been around awhile. It was used by a mounted reenactor so it looks its age, but for $300 I could'nt go wrong.
My only concern is that there seems to be some loosness between the barrel and the reciever. First, how much will this affect accuracy, and second can it be tightened up? Does the looseness happen at the hinge or at the catch on the top of the barrel/reciever? Anyone fixed this issue before?
Thanks for any ideas
