Guess I should have bought both of the NID 28-gauges Randy Shuman had when I bought my No. 1 from him in 1987. The other was a Field Grade but with very high-grade wood on it from a No. 5 or maybe a No. 7.

I’m sure the price has increased considerably since 1987, if you can call it an investment, you did well!

Am I mistaken or have the chokes been opened up and the barrels reblued? 4/4 = full/full. The listing indicates original barrel finish but the pictures show weep holes.

Weep holes mean nothing on Ithaca doubles. They had them from new. Same with Ansley H. Fox
A couple of lines from the bottom of Jay's lengthy text -- "This gun did ship originally with F/F chokes. Sometime along the way it was altered to a more useful IC/M gun." Both of my NID 28-gauges are choke marked 4 & 4 but have less in the right barrels. My No. 1 is .020" right and .032" left. My No. 2 is .017" right and .027" left. |
