Larry, I know better than to argue with you and after all you do outrank The Major. I'd never get the last word anyhow.

However, you might remember that Nathaniel Peabody got the gun from his Uncle Calhoun. In two separate Galen Winter stories, including Uncle Calhoun in the title, the gun is described as a 1925 Lefever. Who ever heard of a Syracuse gun made that late?...Geo


The only trouble with that is the Ithaca/Lefever A grade was made 1934-40.....the only "Lefever" being made in 25 was the Nitro Special.....
