Oh man, an Ithaca mod 37. Talk about your classic pump shotgun, that's it.

Winchester mod 12 fans would argue that point but I'll stick by my statement, that Ithaca 37 with bottom ejection was a one of a kind pump gun. I'm not sure if Ithaca ever made a comeback or not. I seem to remember that it was sold to somebody after it was shut down the last time but I haven't heard anything else about it.

I heard that Ithica was bought by Remington awhile ago. I think they are only making over-and-under doubles now. I have three Model 37's. One is a standard 12 gauge, one is a 20 and the third is a 12 gauge riot gun that formerly belonged to the NM State Police. The State Police decided to replace the model 37's with Remington 870's because the 37's were "old". I bought mine from a local gun shop. The gun was made in the late 50's and is still in excellent shape.

I like the Ithica better than either the Winchester 12 or the Remington 870 because of the bottom eject feature. An Ithica pump is almost impossible to jamb.
