All I can find is ' Ithaca Gun Co.' engraved near the trigger, and
'Krupp Fluid Steel' on the barrel. Don't know what year.

Scotty


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?

I have my Dads old 12 gauge double barrel, lots of memories with
that
one. Also my first .22 rifle. Ganzy feels I shouldn't own such
sentimental objects unless I buy a permit. Why?



Because he is a liberal that thinks the govt should control you.
He needs the money collected from permits to pay his welfare check.
Because he's to dumb to understand that criminals do not register
firearms.

What kind of Double barrell did your dad give you Scotty?.

I have on old 1894 Remington hammerless DB. Its made of Damascas
steel so I never have shot it.

you have a gun rack on a 13 ft. dinghy!
wow that's scary
i suspect i won't be sailing in kansas anytime soon
and i thought all the jokes had to do with pickup trucks

actually i have
an old and very beautiful (as guns go) 12ga from the early
1900's. a
side by
side double barrel made in england and given to me by my dad
years
ago.
a 22 caliber from when i was a kid
and a 308

when i go sailing, i carry them in the closet storage area, all
the
way in
the back, up high with the alarm set and the doors
locked.........

i guess i keep them as reminders of another time. and have not
used
any of
them in more than 20 years
heck here in NY they're are enough police that getting mugged
is
not a
concern.
more like having a private militia, whether you want it or not.
