Product Information & Specs

Seller Description For This Firearm

SHOTGUN: LEFEVER ARMS MODEL LEFEVER NITRO SPECIAL SIDE BY SIDE, SERIAL NUMBER S248325, OTHER, CASE NOT INCLUDED, 20, 20 GAUGE, SIDE BY SIDE / DOUBLE BARREL

Notes:
For sale is a classic Lefever Nitro Special side-by-side double barrel shotgun manufactured by Lefever Arms Co. of Ithaca, New York. This is a well-built American shotgun from the early-to-mid 20th century, known for solid construction and reliable performance as an affordable field gun.
Key Features:

Action: Boxlock side-by-side double with extractors
Barrels: 28" or similar length (standard for model), nitro-proofed steel barrels with nice rib
Gauge: 12 gauge
Stock: Walnut with checkered grip and forend, showing nice grain and classic Lefever profile
Finish: Blued barrels with case-colored or blued receiver (typical patina for age)
Markings: Clearly stamped "LEFEVER ARMS CO. ITHACA, N.Y." and "LEFEVER NITRO SPECIAL" on the barrels and receiver

Condition: Good overall vintage condition with honest wear consistent with a working shotgun of its age. The wood shows normal handling marks, scratches, and dings but remains structurally sound with good checkering. Metal has typical bluing wear and patina but no major pitting or damage visible in photos. Bores appear clean and bright for the age. A solid candidate for restoration or straight shooter as-is.
This Lefever Nitro Special offers that classic double-gun feel and balance at a fraction of the price of higher-end European models. Perfect for upland birds, clays, or as a collectible piece of American shotgun history. FFL required. Buyer to handle all transfer fees and compliance.

PEACE OF MIND
PEACE OF MIND

Shopping at Guns.com gives you the backing of a company that is committed to your satisfaction.  And unlike our competitors, it extends beyond the buying process.  We get the FFL from your store – others make you find it, copy it, and fax it.  We have a generous return policy, and handle everything – you don’t have to go back to the store.  And our Rangemasters are here to answer all your questions about our products or process.  We're bringing a level of service to the online gun buying experience that is unheard of.


WE SUPPORT LOCAL GUN STORES
WE SUPPORT LOCAL GUN STORES

Many online gun sales actually take away from your local community.  Instead of buying a gun that’s on your local store’s shelf, most retailers drop ship it from a warehouse in another state.  At Guns.com, if an FFL is part of our network, we sell THEIR guns first whenever possible.  That way, we’re helping small businesses in your community AND if they have it in stock, you can pick your gun up IMMEDIATELY – it’s how business should be done.


WE KEEP IT SIMPLE
WE KEEP IT SIMPLE

Most everything can be easily bought online these days.  But for some reason, buying a gun online can be complicated.  Most websites are poorly organized, don’t tell you a lot about what you’re buying, and leave you on your own to figure out what you want.  Guns.com is built to be simple – easily organized products, useful descriptions from experts, and support to guide you to the right choice.  Spend your time enjoying the gun you want, not getting frustrated with a complex website that makes gun buying hard.
