I have 2, one a 17E that's on the restoration pile and a two barrel gun, both barrels numbered to the gun. Never had a problem, lovely, lightweight guns.

I always assumed that the 1917 was patented in 1917 and the patent expired 20 years later which is when the Ithaca M37 appeared...


My problem lies in reconciling my gross habits with my net income.
