Gentlemens:

Rather than clutter up the "new Lefever" thread I thought it best to start anew.

I am fairly new to the work of the beloved Uncle Dan. Would you good folk share some pictures of the guns we are talking about recreating?

Much obliged,

Glenn

Here is the catalog description of the EE, a $115 item. Sears best farm wagon was only $40 at the time. They go out their way to take pride in the engraving.


Can't remember who posted it on the Lefever forum. This is a wonderfully restored DS 16ga.



A 14ga Barber-Lefever. He eventually built only hammerless guns, but the lines of the receiver and barrels pretty much stayed the same as his early work. The thumb release on this one is a nice touch.

The DS is "Upgraded" not restored. A DS had no engraving.
