Gary; I have a 10 gauge F grade that has about the same amount of colors as the one Silvers posted. Hope this helps. I don't know how to post but I can email pics to you if interested. tom@tophatchimneysweepsinc.com

Thanks Silvers! Unfortunately PictureTrail is down right now-but I'll get those brls added to the 'Damascus Barrels' album soon. Do you know the year of production?

Check out the photo forum on the Lefever bbs. There are some good examples of original case color. The colors are all very close to the photo that Silvers posted.

rd drew, the serial # list here shows 1895 for the G grade but someone on the Lefever site told me it's probably 1894. Close enough. P.S. Check out the stock on this G. The stock oval shows a gent's name from a prominent family and the factory probably took some pains to pick out a nice one. Nice high dims and long LOP too! Silvers

We have all been buying refinished guns as original for years. The dealers will continue to do it without blinking because they can sell them for more than they pay. OOPS, we use the same logic when we buy them. Oh, well.
