Dave, do you know if Ithaca ever changed their mag 10 ad to recognize their 12 gauge 3" magnum built on the mag 10 frame as the heaviest 12 gauge load available?
Don't wait too long to buy your dad his dream gun. When I was a kid my dad used to say that he really wanted a Winchester 490 .22 to match his model 100 .308. With seven kids and having other cheaper .22s, he just couldn't justify it. About 10 or 12 years ago at an auction sale for a gun shop that was shutting down they had a new in the box 490 that was found buried in the stock room. I bought it and tried to give it to him, but Dad said I might as well keep it as he didn't think he could get out and use it. He passed away last summer. The two rifles did get together in the end though.
