I wonder if these were ever made, at least not in the sense of the Curtis try guns. I say that because one has never turned up to my and my collector friends awareness while the earlier produced sbt try guns are well known.
Eightbore-I can't speak for any try gun Curtis may have made for other manufactures, I have noted in the Ithaca records 9 or 10 (Have to re-look it up) sbt try guns that were made and loaned and sold in one instant) to big dealers, etc. Their number is not stamped in the stock but on the aluminum part of the recoil pad (such that it was). I think 11 is the highest number noted to date and that is why I said 12 were made. Why so many try guns?? Ithaca was doing a land office business in sbts at the time e.g.1917ish.
The company still had one of them in the archives when I started my journey.
