I have a couple of these twist barreled DS grade guns with cocking indicators and dolls head rib extension, and have seen several others with this scarce configuration. None of them exhibit any indication that they were assembled by Ithaca.


There are several indicators to help identify Ithaca assembled Lefevers. My gun has several but I have been told the "P" stamp on the forend hanger is always Ithaca. Maybe I have been mislead?
