Dave, that is a wonderful gun! Just beautiful.
I'm guessing about a 1900-'03 D grade. I just adopted a second EE Lefever 12 ga with chain damascus 30" barrels. I get it Monday! Edit: I missed the picture of the water table. It is a CE grade! Great find, Dave! |

By the serial number it is of 1899 vintage, if the published serial number chronology means anything?!? The right watertable is stamped C. The machining for the ejector parts in the frame eradicates most of the last digit of the serial number on the watertable, making me wonder if this gun went back to Syracuse to add the ejectors.
