My first double was a Lefever Nitro 16 gauge and it served me well for many years. It's one problem was that it had about 4 inches of drop at heel.

I've still got the gun and still squirrel hunted with it occasionally. This summer I got a wild hair and took it off to be restocked and tightened up, couple dings taken out of the barrels too. The gun is low value as I'm well aware, but I'd never sell it anyway, so spending the money doesn't really matter.

Now I'll use it again, maybe even duck hunt with it a bit. It's supposed to be ready "early fall" according to the gunsmith. I'm ready.....
