Hal,
As you know from other posts I have an RBL-12 on order. I ordered and paid in full in Novemember and am scheduled for a late April/early May delivery. Okay, if it's a couple months late I won't get worked up. My RBL is a semi custom, low production gun. Sometimes "it is what it is!"
If Ithica gets their 20 ga in production before I get my gun money saved for a 20 ga I'll give the Ithica a serious chance. Please know the RBL-20 mechanical design/reliability will be the standard by which I judge the Ithica. I'll judged the feel of the gun by a Parker 0 frame 20 ga or perhaps a Fox 20 ga. If Ithica would offer a 6.5 lb with 30" barrels at a base price of $2500, unless they they really screw it up (judging by the new M37's I don't think they will) I think Ithica will get my money!
Thanks,
Mark
