Default Original Since 1900

Unaltered, original condition.
12ga.

Then lastly, here is a little fellow, 18 inches long, that crawled under my chair while I was sitting in it when at scout camp a few days ago.

Very nice Bruce. Gotta love the Chain Damascus on Lefevers. The engraving is consistent what you will see on an E grade. Looking closer comparing my D grade I see some similarity in the little extra embellishments to the engraving... Is this an E grade or D grade?

Lefevers are very interesting guns and each one is has a little different engraving and higher than expected wood quality to the stock.

Its an E.

Thanks Frank. A good friend has a to die for Optimus . Unfortunate that these really nice Lefevers have such a narrow window of collectability with so few years and numbers.

Then for those geographically inclined, where am I ?
