I have a Munsey's Mag. from Nov, 1903. And an Argosy Magazine from Oct, 1908.
For years I've wanted to take them apart, keep the ad. art, and chuck the pulp fiction.
Lately, I've had the time....
Thanks scosgt,
This must be the warning you referenced in a reply to my post (4-7-20) concerning the Ithaca WWII M37 training shotgun.
Still good advice. Glad I found it here in the older...
Here are more marks I found in the barrel that may or may not make any difference.
I took the barrel off to photograph.
What I described as gouges are punch marks, straight down.

Hey scosgt,
I found a photo that shows the gouge marks near the serial number.
The sun came out a little today so I went outside to take some new photographs
of the current "Reigning Queen"...
Thanks You Guys,
This is extraordinarily interesting to me.
It seems that our UNITED STATES PROPERTY marked M37 Ithaca's are part of a very small club.

Hey Tom,
That's more than speculation, this shotgun has a history. The Real Deal.
Shipped the same week as Pearl Harbor.
To think, someone, almost 80 years ago, noted down this little factoid in...
WOW!!!
That would be Real Cool.
I'm usually not shy about posting serial No. stuff.
I'm new to this Forum though.

I did not know information like that was known.
I read yesterday...
Thanks scosgt for the reply.
The possible Springfield Armory connection would make it's history even more interesting.

Hey All,
This is a great site for an ammo junkie like me.
Don't know why I haven't found it before. It's right here.

Hey Guys,
I have an Ithaca M37 12 ga. shotgun that is not in its original configuration.
Would you care to speculate on what that configuration was?

I had to dig out that other box of shotshells.
It's "Western" made by Olin, not "Western Auto".
says on plastic side;

Hey All,
So I've got some time on my hands with the Chi-Comm Bio-Weapon Plague and all.
Been inventorying my old ammo. I have a dozen boxes of the old paper hulled shells left.

Thanks Johnny P.
I had a Rem-Rand with a stamped trigger. It's not one of those.
I've read about stamped and milled triggers.
Are some die cast?
I tried to get some better photos of my worn...
