If i am not mistaken, ithaca blued their guards and FE irons on all model and grades of doubles.

That is a glaring error here --

Looks blued to me in picture No. 6. But, the forearm iron is clearly color case hardened. The nine Ithaca doubles I own and most all of the pictures I've collected off the internet show blued forearm irons.

I have an Ithaca 4E 16 NID, the trigger guard is blued, not sure about the fore end iron--I think it is blued also. Just shot it Friday at Hausmann's
