Ithaca 37 place of manufacture. - 09/30/16 03:20 PM
While looking for two Ithaca Model 37, 28's yesterday I came across two nib which I was told were made while Ithaca was still in Kings cross or where every that short lived venture was located. The story given was at that time all 28's were being made in the custom shop by their master gunsmith. The one I recently bought at the Factory was made in Ohio.
I am not interested in collecting them as some not to be fired rare item to live in my gun room. These are going to be gifts to my sons to use. So is there any thing "special" about these. The price was agreeable and there was no premium to their special status. Any concerns about the early ones? Any advantage or disadvantage to them? Fit and finish looks very good just like my other one.
