Looks like all the weight is in the barrels! Lefever 10s are not seen all that often. Especially later ones like yours.

Thanks Brian, I think it is hard to find a hammerless short ten by any maker that is in good original condition with good/modern dimensions these days. This one points very naturally and each person who shot it last night was breaking all their targets.

You're absolutely correct about modern dimensions. I had never really shouldered a lefever before I found this one and it fit just like a glove. I thought I would show you what the barrels look like after I had them done a few years ago. this truly is one of my favorite guns to take to the field.

The 10 ga Lefevers are really tough to find. Again, congrats on a great find.
