I like the Ithaca guns and that is a fine looking one for sure. But I have to state here my pet peeve with Ithaca: they often use trigger guards without the return (term?), that little curlicue thingy that completes the oval of the guard (the pictured gun is an example). A double gun ought to have one, and a double just doesn't look right (read looks cheap) without it. I have the same complaint with Nitro Specials and later Stevens guns. How's that for picky?
