Nice guns Frank. The LeFever is under appreciated IMHO. I have a 16 and wouldn't part with it. In regards to the logging they say there was more money taken out of Michigan's Upper Peninsula in White Pine (white gold it was called) than in the entire California gold rush.

Great guns, and a nice photo enhanced by the lack of color. It gives a nice sense of timelessness to the picture. Good to see someone hunting small game! It is a rare, rare day that we run into another rabbit or squirrel hunter.

They may not have had chain saws as we know them but did have drag saws. Some were steam powered, some with gas engines. They were a regular cross cut saw blade hooked to a reciprocating transmission. Most could be switched from vertical cuts (for cutting up logs) to horizontal cutting for felling.
