What is a field shotgun and can I conver one into a trap ShootGun?
With a field shotgun, the target is placed directly behind the bead. On a trap gun, the target is placed above the bead for better visibility. That is the main difference. Also, the comb is elevated on a trap gun and the stock and butt plate are sometimes adjustable on a trap gun. Trap guns are also heavier to reduce damage to the shoulder due to repeated firing. Trap guns sometimes have ported barrels to reduce jumping of the barrel. Any highly shotgun with a wooden stock and replacable barrels can probably be converted into a trap gun. Just buy a trap barrel and replace the barrel. You can also port the barrel or have the stock cut out to make it adjustable. Honestly, no modifications are needed to a field gun, as long as it is a decent gun. I shoot a field gun for trap and I do just fine.
Lefever long range field and trap gun it has lefever arms co and Ithaca ny underneath a geese engraved on each side the serial number is 11697 any idea how old this gun is and what it is worth?
I have the exact same gun. I'm not sure exactly how old it is but it was my great grandfathers so it's probably 80+ years. These Guns were made until 1942 and ceased after the war was in full swing. newtest3 I have nearly the same shotgun as well, from all info I have gathered, it is a true Lefever design, which means it is pre-1921 and assembled by Ithica using left over parts from their buyout of Lefever Syracuse, NY. After '21, all info I have found point to Ithica selling a less than wonderful Ithica designed shotgun under the Lefever name. Ithaca bought out Lefever in 1916. In 1927 they intorduced the Lefever Single Barrel Long Range field and Trap model. Serial No. 11697 was mfg. in 1928 and the model was produced until 1942.
Lefever 12 gauge shotgun It is a long range field and trap with serial number 14675 Does anyone know its age and appoximate value There is no rust and with the stock intact -minor scratches?
The Lefever 12 gauge shotgun with serial number 14675 was likely manufactured around the early 1900s, as Lefever Arms Company produced shotguns primarily between 1880 and 1920. Its age can be pinpointed more accurately with specific production dates, but without those details, it is generally considered to be from that era. The approximate value of such a shotgun in good condition typically ranges from $300 to $800, depending on specific features and collector demand. Minor scratches and the absence of rust can positively influence its value, but a thorough appraisal by a gunsmith or appraiser is recommended for a more accurate assessment.
