regarding revealing serial numbers...
rumor has it, the feds have lists of stolen guns, including some serial numbers...
paranoia suggests that "they" are monitoring internet postings, looking for links to stolen guns...
who knows, cept "them"...
to avoid possible hassle, safe bet is to not reveal the last few digits of a gun, for which you do not have a lengthy history of its ownership...

I collected small bore Ithaca’s for many years , especially the 28’s and probably can help you if you want to pm me! I did write an article on them in the Winter 2000 issue of the Double Gun Journal. Seems so long ago and I learned more about them following that publication. If you want to ask questions on this forum, I’ll help as much as I can. They only made just over 400 of these guns in 28ga., making them quite scarce. I’ve had lots of conversations with Walt S over the years and he is a fine gentleman. We shared some gunshow tables on a few occasions and those were memorable weekends.

To post photos on this antiquated site one needs to use a photo hosting service, I use Imgur.com. Between foreign and domestic terrorist groups, gang violence, border issues, racial violence and Covid-19 if you think the Feds have the resources to watch for serial numbers of 90 + year old shotguns you really are paranoid.

I agree with Researcher. I don't think they are "looking" for us.

only "day" no...an "day" aint sayin...
if "day" is lookin, den "day" most likely got software dat is scannin internet guns for sale files lookin fur strings of alpha/numeric characters associated wid key words, like caliber an gauge, etc...
when there is a hit, the software then runs a comparison by a file of serial numbers of known stolen guns...when there is a match, an exception report is generated for human follow up...
or not...jes sayin...

I agree with Researcher. I don't think they are "looking" for us. The only thing you have to be paranoid about is the anti-gun Democrats. They have a long and proven history of working relentlessly to take away the 2nd Amendment Rights of law abiding U.S. citizens. In fact, House Democrats recently passed two anti-gun Bills. But some seriously dumb gun owners keep voting for them... https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=current+anti-gun+legislation.
Voting for anti-gun Democrats is dumber than giving treats to a dog that shits on a Persian Rug
