The Keystone Principle 
A GES and ages ago, the arch of a building might collapse. The simple principle hidden in 
the keystone was not then fully understood. Today such a thing as collapse would 
' be improbable ; every builder has grasped the idea. 
A few years ago a gun might shoot loose and get out of order. “Gun collapse ” was taken 
for granted; today it has no excuse. Lefever construction may be seen in any gun store. 
LEFEVER SHOT GUN 
action is readily understood. The keystone in an arch, with its problems of 
weight, thrust and resistance, is no more wonderful than the Lefever 
cocking hook. This one part does the cocking and extracting with one 
motion. It is the bond between frame and barrels—exact, sub¬ 
stantial, and so simple. If you shoot the gun with the lock 
plate removed, you will “grasp the idea.” 
Our catalogue will tell you of barrel rigidity and take-up un- ^ 
equalled in any other gun. It tells about steel in these 
guns which is an honor to the names of Europe’s great 
steel makers—not a discredit. It also tells about LEFEVER 
taper boring and other things you must know / »» m 
if you are to invest your money right. It AtviVlo vAJ. 
is a catalogue worth sending for. 23 Maltbie Street, Syracuse, IN, Y«

for field or trap use—BUY THE BEST. It may 
cost twice as much as a cheap gun, but it will last 
ten times as long. There is no better gun than a 
PARKER. Ask the man who owns one.

You can use in the same rifle, without change of parts, .22 short, long 
and long-rifle cartridges. This is an excellent arm for target work as 
well as rabbits, squirrels, hawks and all small game up to 200 yards. 
The ammunition is cheap, giving much enjoyment at little expense. 
In our four distinct models—the solid top is always a protection and 
keeps powder and gases from blowing back; the side ejection allows in¬ 
stant repeat shots, without the possibility of throwing an ejected shell 
into your face or eyes; the removable sideplate or take-down construction 
makes them the easiest of all ,22s to keep clean.
