I got a chance to look at these puppies today - CE 20ga Lefever with 28” Damascus barrels. Almost certainly Loy engraved with his signature geometric designs. Super rare gun!

Definitely Joseph Loy's engraving. Nobody did dogs like he did.

Not the best pic, but this is a DH I will be receiving in about a month. Really nice detail I think.

Yes indeed Bill, from one of the very best periods of hammerless Parker engraving.
