I looked at what I assume is an Ithaca Crass 12 gauge seriel numbered 131,xxx . That would make it approx a 1908 gun . I buy all that . The numbers match barrels , forened and water table . The only thing I question are the fluid steel barrels on this one . The condition overall of the gun appears to be the same with no refinishing thats apperant .
Things at a semi local auction . So I put what I consider a safe bid . If I get it I get it and if I don't oh well !
They also have a Lefever 16 gauge in rather nice shape , this is one of the later Ithaca Lefevers and again I put what I thought was a safe bid .
They had a nice old Marlin 336SC in 35 REM with a very nice old Weaver K3 on top . I should have put a bid on that one as well , but then if I got it I'd need to get dies , brass and bullet molds again . Sold all my 35 REM stuff about 3 years agao and no need to go back now ! This gun was a 1955 gun that appearred to be in rather good shape albeit the blueing was worn on the underside from carrying .
