Beautiful example of Ithaca Gun Co.'s best work!! Did Walter ever do a The Double Gun Journal article on the gun? Wish there was an index of Ithaca articles like we have of A.H. Fox articles.
Those pre-WW-II non-corrosive primers are pretty iffy. Twenty-two years ago I had a box of about 1939 vintage Winchester Super-Speeds that I took with me on a trip to the heartland. First walk after we crossed into the southeast corner of Nebraska, "Meat in the Pot" went click, click when the first rooster flushed. Tried several more at the parking lot with no success and left the box and shells on a fence post.
