I have recently came into a Lefever sxs 20ga. shotgun that looks old.Its has Levfever Nitro special on the right barrel top and Lefever Ithica new york on the left top.It is a box lock and has a flying duck on each side.Can some one tell me what years these were made?It looks like it was made in the 40s or 50s at least.Very nice little sxs and was love at first sight when i found it.would the value be around 5-600 dollars?Any info would be very appreciated.Thanks in advance.

I don't know when these were made. But I have seen many on lists of used guns in stores here in Canada. Usually in the $350-$500 range. I have heard they are quite good and reliable.

Enjoy your new gun, should be a great upland bird fetcher!

Thanks 577,I found out they quit makeing them in 1948.started in the 1920s.I just love old double barrel guns! Most of the old boxlocks you see have a crack running in the stock but this one doesnt.If it was 12ga. i bet it would.Old buddy of mine told me that back in the old days the old shotguns were like tools to get meat/rabbit/birds.They were treated like a tool.lots of em show hard use and many days in field.Wish I had a truck load of em!
