I have a 16ga upgraded Optimus. I have provided the serial number to the organization. Regardless of upgrade or not it's by far one of the nicest guns I own.

Dean, The 2 fires of significance in the Lefever history are the ones that terminated the Dangerfield and Lefever operations in Auburn, NY in 1874 and the one that basically terminated the D. M. Lefever Co.'s sidecocker operations and led to the formation of the Lefever Arms Co. in Syracuse, NY in 1883. Neither would have had any affect on the Lefever records we are talking about. If there was a fire at the Ithaca factory where records were kept after the acquisition by Ithaca Gun Co. I am not aware of it (that doesn't mean it couldn't have happened as I have not thoroughly studied the history of the Ithaca Gun Co.).

I think a "fire" is common catch-all term associated with missing records. Didn't LC Smith have a "Fire" too. Or maybe they actually did... not sure.
