Gene will never find what he's looking for.

Gene,

Now might not be the best time to be selling. Now might be a good time to go out and find ammo for that and hunker down. They're rioting in Florida. Eventually, if this goes on long enough, the rioters are gonna run out of downtowns to burn, and they're gonna come for the neighborhoods. Just sayin'.

11 for sale on gun broker.com prices ranging from 255 up to 700. only 2 with bids, 255 and 395.

so i'd guess around 400-450.

I seriously doubt anyone going to come down the streets in this burb, and survive......BUTTTTTT never know, they may TRY!!!


I have a 8 shot Benelli M4 H&K so best I can do is clean the lawn when the fire bombs are hurled through the pix window......

In a lot of peoples views the older Ithaca was cable of slam fire and is worth more if gun is being used in a defensive situation.

(Slam fire is when you hold the trigger back and rapidly do the pump action.)
Over the course of time I have had 5 Ithica pumps and they are a very good gun.

Sorry due to today's nonsense I can not give you a price!

[mrvette]

EH, hell with it then, he a very good fellow, dun tons of favors for us, and so we swap efforts back and forth.....we have built much stuff all around his and my house over the years......etc.....helped rebuild his kitchen and a couple baths......and redo his screen porsche into an HVAC sealed room.....more room for junk.....

so when the shit hits the fan, I just loan it to him.....need supply shells too, of course.....

The Ithaca Model 37 does not have a "disconnect" in the fire mechanism so it will continue to fire every single time a fresh shell is chambered IF the trigger is held back.

Another advantage is the spent shells eject straight down instead of off to the side ( important for lefties )

Benelli Super Nova here. Bought it back when we lived too close to comfort to Ferguson MO. I have a couple of other shotguns but they are more sporting than defense

Yes the OLDER models as I said. They put in a disconnecter system in decades back. I have had 3 oldies with slam fire capability and two newer that did not. If I had to guess I would say about 1980 they changed the action!

iirc, the change was model 87 to replace the model 37

[markids77]

Apparently the second sear which allowed slam fire was removed in approximately 1975.

Nope the actual 37!
