A member at our local trap club has a LeFever single barrel long range trap that appears to have a broken firing pin. I believe these were made in 1905 & 06 and than later by Ithaca in the 1920's Is any one aware of a potential part source for these guns. I did not see anything on the collector site.
Thanks

It is likely an Ithaca made gun. Any good gunsmith should be able to turn one out at reasonable cost. I don't know of a ready source for parts.

The DM Lefever made single barrel trap guns are very rare. I doubt that's what we are talking about. They have very low serial numbers (up to 3 digits).
The Ithaca guns are much more common. They will have a 5 digit serial number. For those guns try here:

Well, if your live in Wisconsin (you know UMFWR)?
Do they have cameras there?

Can you post a picture of the LeFever Single Barrel Gun?

Thanks smile
