Yeah, you are right- this Nitro looked like a drop forged receiver, as the Ithaca NID has- but the top bolting is somewhat different. OK- as I am a "babe in the woods" on Ithaca/LeFever side-by-sides: for the same money, and about identical "wear with care" condition- which of these two is the better buy- (1) The afore mentioned Nitro Special with 2 serial number matched barrel sets- or a earlier NID 12 28 M&F std one barrel set- both guns have DT and EXT- 14" LOP- 2.45" DAC-- original black buttplates and uncut barrels free of dings--? Thanks for your input. RWTF
