Thanks, Brian, for the pictures of the restored Lefever Arms Early thumb-opener.
How does one custom shape a new horn tip; is it pressed or is material removed?
It’s good to know there are professionals with the expertness to make such guns as the two Lefevers depicted here glorious again.
I do some of my own home, boat and vehicle restoring and repairing. But, I think I will continue to have the pros do my gun repair work.
That looks like a “battle tartan” that Edgar’s Nichols & Lefever hammer gun is displayed on.
