Steve surely the .410 is a Nitro Special. The Syracuse Lefever's, to my knowledge, only came in 10, 12, 16 and 20 gauge and there were darn few 16s and 20s.

Syracuse Lefevers were also made in 8 & 14 ga's, but even less than the 16s & 20s.
Certainly not the .410, they only made "Shotguns" grin
"MY" H's incidently will remain H's & I will use them un-ashamedly.

That's cute Dave! Who did the work and what are the specifications? Have the breach balls been filed to the reduced size of the barrels or are the barrel walls kept thick to match up with the 20 gauge frame like some of the Fox 28 gauge custom jobs?

I admit to knowing absolutely nothing of Lefevers. I was shown the guns as a work in progress when picking up a gun from my wood guy. I gave them a good look as guns, but cannot say at all what they were other than being told they were 'a set of Lefevers.' Damn, though, they're gonna make an awesome set when he gets done with them.

Must be talking about "Blues" guns. Yes, they are all Nitro Specials.
