Hi Fellas:
This probably only confuses the chronology, but I have an Ithaca NID 20 ga. (ser. #443,XXX). This gun is a field grade with cocking indicators as you would expect. It also has the usual field grade ingraving with the setter, etc, but it also has the "star" engraving on the frame as found on the later field grades. According to the records, this gun was manufactured in 1927. Isn't this a little earlier than we have been talking about finding the "star" grades. This gun also has twin ivory beads, 26" bbls., choked imp. cyl. and mod. It is a very sweet little 20 ga.
Take care,
