If those barrels had been finished or made by Lefever, they would have had the perfect Parker matting, and probably barrel logo. Up until Bob Lefever left and the business was turned over to a young, non Lefever gunsmith, the business owned and used the original Parker matting machine. After the young manager left (to Utica) taking the matting machine with him. Lawsuits ensued and the Utica business went under. Today, I would not be surprised if the machine lives on in Connecticutt.
