That's too bad. I had my eye on the 10-gauge version for a spell, but stuck with SxS.

Well, I guess I better keep mine then. Now it's "collectable". Roll engraved receiver, 5 screw in chokes. It's a nice one.

Those are nice shotguns, but really heavy.

I think it''s lighter than my CZ over/under

Only if you be a sissy

Damn fine shotgun...shame they ain't being made any longer.

Can't say that I found them heavy...I did find them well balanced for a pump action...but that is just me.

So it's YOUR fault they phased it out! If you had JUST bought one, it could have been what kept it alive!

I'm happy with my ancient Ithaca 37.

They are a beautifully designed shotgun with flawless japanese manufacturing. I hope to find one of the Tactical models some day.

Yeah, I slept too long on the BPS High Capacity and they disappeared. I picked up one of the Turkish Ithaca 37 Trench gun clones on clearance from PSA to make myself feel better though.
