Hi Francis,
I found this thread from two years ago on Shotgun World. Walt Snyder does not have a link in his Doublegun Shop signature, either. I figured he would if an Ithaca group existed. He 'wrote the book'.

Hi Francis.
Do you or any other members out there have any info on old or new mod
37 pump guns numbers years ect.

Thanks Dave .

Here is a direct link I think will help for the '37 pump and other Ithaca SxS models. The owner was a gunsmith who worked at Ithaca for 28 years.

-- I am a dyed-in-the-wool M12 man, my grandson Jordan will start with a 20 field grade 28" mod choke my late Dad bought new in 1932-has the older "perch-bellied" buttstock, I shot my first pheasants and ducks with it (with a 3 shot plug)- I had a solid red pad added when I was about 13- longer arms, bigger in chest and shoulders than my late father- but I have a spare M12 20 gauge buttstock to install on it when Jordy is ready- hopefully at age 10 or so-- his father is a lefty, but still shoots his late father's M25 12 gauge Win pumpgun, when he's not borrowing my "POS" evil black Mossenburgher 835 Utility Mag 3.5" 12 pump..

I like the Ithaca M37, they sure were popular, one of Michigan's now late legendary grouse men, Doc Hall of Traverse City area- had a 20 with a Poly-choke and he was a deadly wingshot with that. My late friend from the Haymarsh Club, owner of a peat and topsoil operation just north of Lakeview- Bud Gummer, a real GSP man, shot a Rem M17 20, also with a Poly-choke, and was also a superb wingshot.

Some men, it might seem, can shoot any shotgun that fits them fairly well, and if the Ithaca featherlight is their chosen "escopeta", well they are in good company indeed. If imitation is truly the sincerest form of flattery, then the short-lived Winchester M12 featherlight may have been offered to the American gunning public as another choice against the well-established Ithaca--

What is going on-- PGCA website- piece of cake, ditto YeeOldeDoubleGunWorkshoppe dot com--but the others- might as well be in Izbeckastan--:whistl e:
