All I can find is ' Ithaca Gun Co.' engraved near the trigger,

and
'Krupp Fluid Steel' on the barrel. Don't know what year.

Ahh. You have whats called a guild gun. Krupp made the barrels, and
Itacha made the rest. Might even have another company make the wood.

Most likely it a 1910-40's vintage made for import. If it were

bought
in Europe it would say Fluss Stahl on the barrells for Fluid steel.
Most of todays barrels are fluid steel. Yours should be able to

handle
todays ammo.

Have you shot it any?


Plenty, bit not since I was a kid. That was my pheasant gun before I
got the 870 pump.
