OP Walter C. Snyder Sidelock Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 2,403 Likes: 17 Pennsylvania	Some time ago I posted my newest acquisition, a 7E made in 1929. It shot perfectly for 150 rounds--total trigger failure on the 151st shot. An examination indicated a catastrophic failure of a very poor repair. SO-buttoned it all up and off it went to the Miller Trigger fellows (Dan May and Ken Waite) hoping they could make it all better. I held my breath until Dan replied--"It can be fixed." exhale--It is home now and performed perfectly today for 100 sporting clay targets!! My thanks and praise for these two craftsmen! They had to undo all the botched repair and re-build the trigger. (It was an Ithaca Miller) Dan also did a perfect job of a finish damage repair, I can't say enough good for these skilled men.

Surely, out of the reach of the common man...... which is too bad, because that was what Ithaca was all about......providing guns for all, no matter what socioeconomic background. Socialism is almost the worst.
