Here are Lefever Arms Company A and B grades. The push lever opening B 16 gauge is a very early gun. Engraving got more complex with time.

Lefever A-Grade. A skeet choked 20-gauge optioned up Model 5 with beavertail, single trigger, Ithaca recoil pad and twin ivory beads --







One of 9 shipped to Bauer's Sport Shop 1 May 1935.

According to Walter, a Lefever A-Grade would have to have to also have ejectors to be a Model 6.

Feb. 15, 1934 --

I have always had a soft spot for the Ithaca Lefever A grades. It is a just enough refined version of the Nitro Special to be somewhat classy.

Here are some photos of a model 6 skeet that I restored a couple years ago.

Very nice! Don't think you'll see many A Grades with wood like that.

bobski, I noticed one on Gunbroker, a 12ga for sale by Mikee J with no reserve and an $1,800 start and it is advertised as "Minty". Surprise, surprise...Geo:
