Default First Lefever

This is my first Lefever, a 12 Gauge grade G with 32” Damascus barrels choked F/F with 3” chambers. I bought it back in January and haven’t done anything with it as I wanted to get a few things fixed first. I am getting ready to send it in and I thought I would post a few pictures.

When I saw the beautiful original Damascus pattern under the forearm I decided I wanted to have the barrels refinished. Both beads are knocked off so I will get those replaced as well. The recoil pad and more frighteningly the instillation need to be corrected and replaced. I will put back a nice Silvers pad. The LOP is 13 ¾” now which I can live with. I'll have the stock refinished too.

I had been looking for a Lefever and when I came across a straight gripped one with 32” barrels I had to have it…

Looking forward to putting it back is service
