Usually, I would have referred the question to Tom Archer who along with Jack Maedel did a long series of articles on Syracuse Arms in The Double Gun Journal. I was more into Frank A. Hollenbeck's adventures in Baltimore and West Virginia. However, recently that great New York Stater, Tom Wyraz, sent me a September 1902 Syracuse Arms Co. catalog. Syracuse Arms kind of had two lines. Their stock items were Grades-00, -00E, -0, -0E, -2, -2E, -3 & -3E, with List Prices $30 to $60. The higher grades, all ejector guns, were A-, A-1 Special Trap-, B-, C- & D-Grades, List Prices $80 to $475. The Cabela's gun appears to be a B-Grade --
