No. The No. 2 was historically a Damascus barrel gun with a List Price of $60. By 1911, possibly earlier, Ithaca began offering the No. 2 with Krupp Steel barrels and called it the No. 2 Krupp Pigeon with a list price of $70. It was offered from a 32-inch 10-gauge to a 24-inch 28-gauge.

By 1916 the No. 2 could be had with either Damascus or steel barrels at the $60 List price, $42.75 actual net selling price. The No. 2 Krupp Pigeon was still offered at the $70 List Price, $49.87 actual net selling price.

By 1918 both the Damascus and the Krupp barrels were gone and the No. 2 was said to be fitted with Best Fluid Steel Barrels. They still showed the $60 List Price but the actual net selling price was up to $50.
