Thanks Dave.
This is the best info yet. I just got home from 8 days away, but I'll try and get another peek at the gun this week.

And just for general info, this is what a Lefever Grade A, Model 6, skeet looks like as opposed to some of the other models shown.

May as well cover all the bases. Here is the Lefever Model 4 Double Trap --



The wood on the Model 6 Skeet Gun shown doesn't look original to my eye.

The beavertail should be shaped like this and there shouldn't be any checkering on the stock cheeks.

Yeah, the A grade that Larry showed does not have original wood.
The one that Dave pictured is an original Model 6 Lefever A grade.

The Lever ejector forends were the same as the Flues ones by way of operation and actual design. However the push button escucheon was different (Flues is Round). And there is one extra round metal piece that shows on the outside on the flues for a screw anchor.

Dear Edgar,
I would be very interested in the Lefever if it is a 12ga. I have a set of a 20 and a 16 with single triggers. I have been looking for a 12. I don't mind paying for the auto ejectors. Please let me hear from you.
Best Regards,
Berkley Stephens

Berkely, refer to the first post. It's a 16ga, double trigger Nitro Special with ejectors.

Dear Edgar,
When I reread the thread, I realized that it was a 16. Sorry for the trouble.
Happy New Year,
Berk Stephens
