If you want a 28 ga. Browning builds them, Lefever didnt. I would never down grade a Lefever this way. If you want a 28ga do it but dot put Dan's name on it.

Why would you consider a 28 a "downgrade"? Did Dan Lefever or those that built his gun consider them inferior? Or did 28s simply not sell well at that time with the available ammunition. The history of best American gumaking was far from static. If he hadn't died in 1906 do you think he would have gone on making exactly the same guns in exactly the same gauges forever?
