Yet another twist is when you spot something good but somewhat unknown to the seller while at gun show. As happened last weekend with a Number 2 (Grade 2) Ithaca NID Super 10 that was hiding at the end of a table. The gent knew it was an old Ithaca 10 gauge but that's about it. I made a shamefully low offer that he declined but when I came back later "ready to go out the door" he relented. First full year of production (1926) gun, all original with hunting wear, no wood cracks, buttplate gun never cut for a pad, 32-inch tubes with factory Mod and Full chokes stamped 2 and 4, perfect bores, unmolested 2-7/8" chambers, lever well right. A good day ……
