I also like an Ithaca 37. I'm looking for one with three inch chambers that can shoot steel. All the 3in I've come across are configured as deer guns. Are the 3" 37s as nimble as the 2 3/4" guns?
Thanks
The older ones come in at 7lb or just over that mark which is too light for 76mm case but nice option to have for occasional turkey or duck hunt. These guns are surprisingly hard to find around here perhaps 1 in 12 will be newer 3" gun with VR and choke tubed barrel. At LGS of half dozen seen all were old 2&3/4" guns with fixed chokes. I got excited when I spotted Ithaca pad and VR on one but closer examination proved it was little used 2&3/4" 37 in dreaded 381xxxxxx serial range. Not many were made because most did not work right.
