Is it a crass?
My action has six screws(one blind screw in the front which appears not to do anything), a dolls head extension, and flat main springs, and a serial number of 41371 led me to believe it to be a crass. The barrel lump mechanics did not match anything I could find for any of the the Ithaca's. I have a Flues and the cocking mechanism on this one is very different. Did not look like photos of a Lewis or Manier mechanisms to me either. The number of holes in the lumps is puzzling. None of the photos I have seen have that many holes in the lumps for screws and pins. Two pins are in place and there are holes for three screws. I am far from an expert on Ithaca's so my analysis and conclusions may be incorrect. For $75 this gun has provided a great amount of enjoyment and provided me with an opportunity to learn a great deal about Ithaca doubles. Tha
