This would be a great gun for an Ithaca collector or a military shotgun collector as a placeholder for an issued Trench-Gun. A gun like this with a two-foot bayonet sticking off the end would probably put second thoughts in most rioters! The gun is in Very Good condition with the great majority of its parkerized finish remaining, a bright bore, and great mechanics. The assembly is proper for an Ithaca Trench-Gun, but the factory cylinder bore barrel has a previously drilled hole for a bead and without any ordnance or US Property markings, it appears this gun was produced for law enforcement as a Riot-type gun. This example is in the Trench-Gun style, with a 6-row ventilated handguard/bayonet lug installed. In addition to seeing use by bird and deer hunters for generations, the Model 37 has served in WWII, the Vietnam War and in countless law enforcement agencies across the country. Our Assessment: The Ithaca 37 enjoys a good reputation for its durability, ambidextrous ejection design, smooth action and of course for being one of few pump shotguns which can be “slam-fired”, meaning that with the trigger depressed, pushing the slide handle forward and locking the action will allow the chambered round to be fired without needing to reset the trigger.
Also included is a green canvas sling showing minor wear. As with all used firearms, a thorough cleaning may be necessary to meet your maintenance standards.īox, Paperwork & Accessories: The installed 6-row, 29-hole Ithaca-style bayonet lug/handguard is included as described. The shotgun ejects out the bottom of the receiver. Mechanics: The action functions correctly. Overall, this shotgun rates in about Very Good condition. The screw heads range from sharp to tool marked with strong slots. The majority of the balance in finish is found in scattered scratches and scuffs on the receiver, most notable on the top and right.

The barrel has light wear from the bayonet lug/heat shield assembly with a few scattered light marks behind. Overall Condition: This shotgun retains about 90% of its metal finish. There is no erosion, but there is some stubborn fouling. The stocks rate in about Very Good overall condition.īore Condition: The bore is bright. The plate has a loss on the left edge with scattered light wear. The LOP measures 14″ from the front of the trigger to the back of the buttplate.
