What a great gun! Love those 'woven' barrels.

You may have gotten the better end of the deal. I hope you use it and post pictures afterwards.

Frank...I don’t know much about this gun. It has 28 inch Damascus barrels choked improved modify and full. I had a blast shooting it today on sporting clays.

What a great Lefever, no doubt destined for the pheasant fields, and should be perfect for that. Hard to believe sometimes that these old guns are 100+ years old and still doing there jobs.

I just recently got tuned in to the Lefever channel and really like what I've seen. That's a nice one Shawn. My first one was a 20ga. H grade and that did it for me. Love at first sight. Enjoy.

Unfortunately I was a Parker snob for many years turning my nose up to the Foxes, Lefevers and some of the English guns. Boy was I a dolt! The smallbore Foxes, Lefevers and one of my favorites, a 20ga Wm. Ford hammer gun, are as good as they get IMHO. Still love my Parkers though.
