Picked up a LeFever Nitro Special (12 gauge) today at the local Cabelas for $379.00. It's in pretty good shape.Used, but not abused I suppose. Serial number is 145XXX. I know that the Nitro Special was actually made by Ithaca after it bought the LeFever company from 1921 - 1949, but what else can you tell me about the Nitro Special? I've been wanting a double shotgun for a couple years now and at $379.00 I figure it's a good start. Any info would be appreciated.
