Grade 3 Hammer
Coming up for auction. Don't get excited, barrels had been cut and it was off face. Never looked at it much after the tape measure came out.

Ithaca SBT
And lastly for the Ithaca and SBT aficionados. This one had 2 barrels with it which I never really looked over. I told Stan about this one, he might be able to opine on originality about it if he looked at it, not sure if he did or not

Great report, Randy! Thanks for the photos.
I hope we get to see the one that the unnamed member purchased. He has pretty good taste...or, hmmm...maybe it's not him(?)

Great report Randy!
There was a few Parkers, nothing real real exciting. The early lifter with the pigeon and pigeon shooter was intriguing. There was a few Ithaca shotguns. I could count on 1 hand the amount of Ithaca doubles, even less Fox shotguns. The 7E Knick was interesting, although I would question the originality of the finishes. There will be a Grade 4 Lifter arriving in PA later this week possibly, it was for sale for a good while and I was able to strike a deal after some help by Randy on the inspection. A grade 4 12 with Parker Laminated barrels, hence my interest, I will post some pictures on arrival. I was fortunate to meet Terry Buffum, (hope my spelling is correct), he is as I understand a Lefever collector from Oregon. Stan |

I like the B grade lifter a lot and would like to see more of it. I would be glad to make 25 thick base shells for the drilled out breech face. The Ithaca Knick has a blued receiver, so I guess "refinished" is a good bet.

I’ve seen that dead pigeon gun before but I don’t remember who the custodian was at that time. .
