My first 3.5" 10 ga. was a used Ithaca Mag 10 auto. Shortly after I bought it the extractor broke so I called Ithaca and asked if I could get a new one. The gentleman I talked to asked for the s.n. and when I told him he asked me to send the gun back for a rebuild. I told him it was used and it just needed an extractor. He explained to me that the first guns were designed around the then available rolled crimp shells and that they had digestion issues with the new pie crimped shells. Even though I wasn't the original owner the gun had a lifetime warranty so send it along. I did, and it has worked well ever since. It became my favorite late season duck gun until non-tox got stuffed down our throats. My favorite load was 2-1/4 oz of hard #5 shot. That gun is the only auto I ever liked.
