No ducks today very poor season so far but at least I have a pretty Lefever to look at and Nellie to keep my company. Hunting about 25 miles from where the gun was made. Lefever D12ga

So, what do you do to keep Nellie from getting too bored on a slow day? Or is she bird-focused so much she doesn't know what time it is? My dogs start to point rabbits when birds are few and far between.:crying:
I have a D grade two barrel set, but in nowhere the nice condition of yours. They are fine guns, for sure. |

Very nice Craig. What is a shame is the state of this state given the history of shotguns here. I'm missing a lot I'm sure but here goes:
Ithaca LeFever Hunter arms Parker in Ilion Remington in Ilion Kimber LC Smith Turnbull Dudley ; ) |
Baker Gun & Forging Co. in Batavia
Syracuse Arms Co. |
Hart Rifle Barrels
Dan Wesson Arms ...but not shotgun related |

Daniel Lefever

I was born in Syracuse and raised in East Syracuse.
Daniel Lefever is buried there in Syracuse at Woodlawn Cemetery (Section 32, Plot 96). Same cemetery as my parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents. Another historical gunmaker buried there is A.O. Zischang of target rifle fame. He and his family are in a mausoleum not far from Lefever. When Sharps folded, he moved to Syracuse and set up a shop there. |
I like the round grip on that lefever. A C grade?
