Re: New Made Ithaca 37
Back when I was HEAVY into dove hunting after trying several type and makes of scatterguns I settled on a lightweight pumpgun and my choices were the Ithaca model 37 Featherlight, and the Winchester model 1300 XTR Featherweight. I was leaning more towards to Ithaca due to the bottom ejection but by the time I wanted to order the then Ithaca Firearms had just gone bankrupt so the 37 Featherweight were unavailable. I bought the Winchester with no regrets, love the gun after over 25 years.
Good to see Ithaca back and running, I hope they sell all they can make.

Re: New Made Ithaca 37
Out of curiosity, would a like-new, relatively late-production original Ithaca 37 have any mechanical, technical or reliability
advantages/disadvantages vs. the new-manufactured ones? I recently saw an original in 20 ga., and other than
having rather plain wood, it seemed very nice.
Any thoughts would be much appreciated!

The noble 1911 is a mechanical marvel, whose ruggedness, dependability & ferocious power have comforted four issues of GIs and which, unlike any other instrument you can name, is as much superior to its rivals today as it was in 1917."

Your new Ithaca will quickly establish itself as one shotgun you'll never part with.
