To me it doesn't look like Loy's work.

There is another on one of the on-line Gun Peddling sites that advertises Loy engraving that I have to question also.
There is plenty that we do not know from that craft from that period of time. Shame. Will |

Ithaca Crass repaired:
Scored a double today, FedEx delivered my Parker Top Lever barrels from Breck Gorman and UPS dropped off the Ithaca Crass Grade 3 that was repaired by Gunter Pfrommer. Gunter tightened the top lever to park to the right upon closing and now the top lever stays to the far right when the gun is open.
I had originally planned on an ejector repair but Gunter said the gun contained no such such mechanism. Even though the extractors are articulated they function as ejectors. Odd to me. Perhaps the photo will reveal some insight. I’m still suspicious that this is an ejector gun, no disrespect to Gunter. If you enlarge the photo you will se two opposing fingers in the foreword channel in the frame. They are there for a reason. He cleaned, oiled and test fired the shotgun before packaging. He did a nice job and turnaround was fast. |

Bruce, you are correct, that is indeed a ejector gun. Those 2 opposing fingers you described are the ejectors. The sixth screw on the sideplates is another way to tell. I own a 1898 Crass with ejectors and it letters as such. Nice gun by the way!
