Keith Kercher of Oregon I believe
First class work from a first class gunsmith indeed. Although the Uncle Dan's are nota true sidelock, like my beloved Elsies, they are excellent guns, and Dan LeFever, like Baker and Charles A. King were gun-genius-gurus, ahead of their time for their developments in side-by-side shotguns as they progressed from muzzle loader to breech loaders, and from hammer guns to hammerless ejector guns--
I bought a LeFever DS 20 bore (Durston Special) named for one of the BOD members of the LeFever Gun Co. I am told- 28" DT Ejectors- 6 lbs and some oz.- sweet handling grouse gun, and not so ornate that you would be afraid to use in the the thick nasties of grouse coverts--I later traded it for one of the two 3" M12 Magnum duck guns I own and shoot- but I wish I had kept it-
