I recently bought a hammerless Lefever 12 ga SxS. 30" barrels. Patent dates: 1872, 78, 80, 85, 86, 87. Grade G. Ser#46550
Marked "Lefever Arms Co."(not Ithica, NY)
I know little about old shotguns. How can I tell if the barrels are choked? There are no barrel markings.
I saw a brief remark online about the different adjustments that can be made to this shotgun, but no description on what they might be.
The shotgun really is in great shape. Even the screws aren't buggered, no rust, dents, etc. Everything works as it should. I have to determine the chamber length.
I plan on shooting it, using black powder only.
Any info on the chokes, loads or whatever would be great.
