Being a lover of finest American engraving, I wholeheartedly agree.

Here is a Remington engraved by Joseph Loy. The picture is from a 2010 issue of the publication Massachusetts Wildlife.

Hard to beat Loy/High grade Remington for engraving. Here is a Remington EE 16ga.

I am quite sure Loy engraved a number of high grade Syracuse Lefever guns. Dont tell the other guys on the BOD, but Lefevers are my favorite American guns for appearance, adjustibility, and engraving.

High grade LC Smith engraving is hard to beat too. These are from the 2013 Spring Southern. None mine, unfortunately.

I love my Parkers but I am also a big Lefever fan. To add what Josh said, Lefevers fitted a higher quality wood to the grade of the gun.

This is my Lefever E grade.

That's quite a nice gun Frank. May we please see close-ups of the side plates and barrels?

What a great piece of wood!!

My God,
The lines on that stock are hypnotic! In a word, superb.

Thanks Dean. I know you've seen this gun when I sneaked it on the gun rack loaded with all Parkers at one of the Parker Fun shoots at Major Waldrons.

[Dean Romig]

Very Nice... You're a lucky guy Frank.

The shape of the Lefever lock plate is so much more eye pleasing to me than the smith. Smith's are a lot like Rigbys, kinda duck-billed.

It sounds like a lot of is appreciate Lefevers. Not surprising. They are great guns.
