Jack,
If you get a chance, take another look. Look for any evidence of damage to the barrels or the ribs. If you can buy it with an approval period, so much the better. You will end up having to get it repaired. Parts for a 10ga Lefever are few and far between.
Miller,
Nice catch. The other thing that catalog blurb basically says is that they were buying the tubes and not completed sets. This would make sense, because the joined barrels had a higher tariff rate than just the tubes. By this point the Belgians were replacing hand brazed barrels using brass with oven brazing using tin solder. I can't say whether the Lefever shop had adopted the then new oven method or were still doing the task by hand.
