"Stuff is eaten by dogs, broken by family and friends, sanded down by the wind, frozen by the mountains, lost by the prairie, burnt off by the sun, washed away by the rain. So you are left with dogs, family, friends, sun, rain, wind, prairie and mountains. What more do you want?" Federico Calboli

Steve, Thanks, but I beg to differ. I am a mere enthusiast in comparison to Walt Snyder. Walter C. Snyder is the MAN on all things Ithaca. His book, Ithaca Featherlight Repeaters…A complete history of the Ithaca M37 and M87 is the Bible of the M37. My guns would be considered Walt’s “beaters”. The M-37 and its predecessor, the Remington M17, are two of John Moses Browning’s most endearing and enduring designs. The design has been in continuous production for almost 100 years for good reason: just as is his 1911, there isn’t anything better made. For someone wanting an affordable, classic all-American design in a repeating shotgun, executed in milled and machined hand-fitted parts, look no further than an M-37. Gil
PS or an M-17 which harder to find than the M-37.
