Great!! First Knick I've seen with a half-pistol grip.
My No. 4E NID 20-gauge is the only NID I've seen with the half-pistol grip -- 457534 04 NID Grade 4E 20-gauge Overview.jpg The 1925 Ithaca Gun Co. catalog states "Full pistol or straight grip." No. 5E Knick 1925 catalog.jpg The 1926 Ithaca Gun Co. catalog states "Full pistol grip unless straight ordered." The 1932 Ithaca Gun Co. catalog states "Full pistol grip unless otherwise ordered." |

Thanks Dave,
That confirms what I was thinking, I hadn't remembered seeing a Knick with half pistol grip before neither. I really need to do some research on the original owner of this Knick, he had his name engraved on the barrel and also in the gold shield, he must have preferred the half pistol grip. It is what I consider the somewhat rare Knick with a 34" barrel. (This was also probably requested on the order) I do not have any NID's with the half pistol grip, My preference is a capped pistol grip, or half pistol grip. Thankfully I'm not a fan of straight grip stocks, or then I would have to compete with many others who consider that a plus. Stan |

Your Knick is a great find. You can find the name of the original owner from Cody. Expensive, but the only way now that the records have been sent to Cody. It would be worth the cost. Since the name of some owner is engraved on the gun, you might consider sharing it in case one of us would recognize it.

Thanks for the kind words guys, I'm probably more thrilled with it since I have it in hand.
When I first noticed the gun and the half pistol grip, it caught my attention, then when I learned that the barrel was 34", I knew I was really interested Do you guys with Parker, Fox, Smith, Lefever, Baker SBT guns have any with half pistol grips, I just don't remember seeing it before, maybe not a target gun feature?
