It should be the same SN at the triggerguard or water table of the receiver. It appears that the forearm of your lefever has been replaced with that of another and may not be original. Pitting would possibly cause a crevice in the folds. Damascus barrels are simple a bunch of twisted metal bars and forged into a barrel. Also, if your barrel is pitted you should use caution in shooting. Some folks shoot very low pressure modern ammo like Estate that keep the pressure below 8000 psi.again I don't and wouldn't. I personally reload black powder rounds for mine and enjoy the fun. I strongly recommend you not shoot modern ammo in this arm. Please note that your gun has or should have damascus barrels. I have two and shoot them in the field atleast a couple of times a year. It is a relatively low grade gun but still a solid well made and respected American side x side. Your Lefever was made around 1893 and is a F grade. The number on the piece of wood/metal that comes off below the barrel has the number 22552 on it. The other number just behind the trigger looks like #20533 When I take the barrel off the number on the other part of the gun is 20533F (there are also two funny little marks that look like plus signs in front of the number - this may not mean anything but I thought id mention it). May even need help looking up the serial numbers if someone wants to help. None of the numbers is more than 5 digits long and the one on the barrel has one "x" behind the number (which I am going to assume has something to do with the gauge of the gun from what I have read). I would be happy to look up the numbers if some one could tell me what I am looking at. One number just behind the triggers, one on the barrel and one on the under side of a wood piece that detatches below the barrels. The only writing on it other than the serial numbers, and patent numbers is the LEFEVER ARMS CO. Hello All, I just inherited a Lefever Arms Co.
