Walter:

Thank you very much for that information. Knowing when, where and to who the gun was sold adds a bit of romance to an old gun. The world is recovering from the Great War and there is a special present under the Christmas tree. I'll be 1921 opened with a lot of promise for Mr. Sinclair.

Are there sources of information on these guns, particularly mechanical drawings? This one has some extractor issues that need to be addressed.


Mr. Murphy:

Thanks for the thought. But all in all if one is going to have an Ithaca paper weight it might just as well be a pretty engraved one.


Cary:

I was indeed bummed about the spacer. It was almost a deal breaker. Howsomever, your idea of a Clorox bottle spacer is great. I will take a lot of photos when I do it and maybe submit and article to the Guild magazine.


Mr. Mann, I'll deal with you later...
