Ithaca 10 gauge NID magnum

There are trigger guards available. They clamp on or snap on the back of the trigger guard. They do work for protecting your finger

I’ve got 100 new unfired uncut Remington hulls and a 600JR that’s for 10 3 1/2” I just might have to load a few full length shells with 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 ounce loads . All the 3 1/2” I’ve fired so far were factory .

Those are perfect. That is the later style forearm latch introduced with the restyling of the NID line in 1935.

That is a fine Grade 2 Magnum 10 you picked up Phil, doesn't appear to have been used hard and then neglected like some we see.

In my experience, most Ithaca Magnum 10's and 12's that I've observed with what appeared to be original pads, they were wearing the Hawkins red pad with the heart shaped vents. I also have a few that I acquired with the Hakins red rifle pad with the straight slots which I just never really cared for and plan to have them switched out.

Just my opinion, but you really need to have a correct pad installed on that lovely Ithaca while letting your shoulder and hand heal

As Dave mentioned, there doesn't seem to be no rhyme or reason as to when cocking indicators were used or not. I have consecutive serial #'s 500,030 and 500,031, both 12 gauge magnums. The gun ending in 30 doesn't have cocking indicators, 31 does. Perhaps customers were asked what their preference was, who knows.

As for a guard for protecting your finger, I haven't really ever felt the need for that, but apparently the former owner of this gun did

This one had a piece of metal soldered in to place behind the trigger guard loop if you will. This gun has a Miller marked single trigger with the less often encountered rocker button selector just forward of the trigger versus the selector being on the safety slide.
I would believe this trigger was definitely installed by Miller since Ithaca was producing their own single trigger by this time.
