I seriously doubt that links to the old Lefever forum are going to work for long given that it is now completely unsupported.
I would encourage those who are interested in Lefevers and the history behind the Lefever guns to join the new forum. There are places to archive photos and any threads you want to retrieve from the old forum while it is still partially available.
The only requirement is that you register under your real name. You do need a valid Email address but that is never revealed to any third party. Private messaging, without revealing your Email address is available to preserve your privacy.
I will admit the required use of your real name is an attempt to avoid personal attacks and reduce some of the antagonism that arises on this forum. We don't see that crap at Side by Side shows and shoots when you are face to face. There is plenty of discussion and no shortage of opinion at those events but I can't remember the last time I heard a face to face personal attack at one of those venues. If you based your opinion of side by side shooters on this forum You might conclude that there are a lot of rude and downright nasty individuals among the crowd. You would be hard pressed to garner that opinion after attending a Side by Side shoot like the upcoming Northeast Side by Side.
