I wonder how much this sold for.

At the 2014 Las Vegas Antique Arms Show there was a 12ga. Grade 3 toplever hammergun converted to hammerless that I and others had seen and handled. The ask on it was less $4K. Here's a link to that discussion and there's a link within this thread that takes you to another thread that includes a couple of pics taken by PML. I am not sure if it is the exact same gun discussed in both threads.

I took a double take on that two-dog engraving on the trigger guard.

Picture of the sidelever. This strikes me as something at the very top of collector/historical interest for those that like Parkers, Lefevers, and the idea of their direct development from muzzleloaders. This conversion as awesome as it is, probably had less time involved than a muzzleloader conversion. Lefever himself likely did the work, right?

By the way, does anyone recall the asking price on this "sold" listing?

I did too. One dog is standing in front of the rock, the other one behind the rock. A regrettable mistake in composition, maybe, considering.
