There are no numbers at all on the barrels that I can see. This, the short barrels with choke, raised flat rib and just a newer look make me think they are replacements. It looks like a bit of a Frankenstein gun although well done to my eye. It is a great shooter so far and came cheap! Thanks for all the great input as it is greatly appreciated!

Bob, you said the barrels are choked Mod & Full. As a student of Lefevers I'm wondering how you measured them and if you can post the bore and choke diameters for both tubes? Also are the chokes full tapered or is there a parallel section out to the muzzles? All of this can help you determine if the barrels are original Lefever production. Thanks!
