Ithaca Crass Grade 3
I saw Jay's post about his wonderful new-to-him Ithaca and the informative responses he got, so I thought I'd post a few photos of my what-I-think-to-be Crass Model Grade 3. I bought it because of the engraving (hey, it's got a bobwhite on the floor plate!) and the barrel pattern. It needs a more period appropriate pad, but otherwise is in quite nice condition.
For you Ithaca experts out there, is there anything you can tell me about this gun? It's in the 29XXX serial range.
