I dunno about old Joe's comment- I cleaned and stripped a 10 hammer NIG circa 1906 (listed as a parts sale item on another sector here- was very impressed with the machining and fit and design of this boxlock hammer gun- I also recently acquired a Flues 20 Grade 1 in near Mint shape circa 1911- and a Flues Grade 2 28 also in VG plus shape- made in 1914-- light, well balanced, easy to cock, sweet triggers, good balance--and am dealing on a 12 NID with single trigger 28" M&F-- I like that Ithaca used a numerical system for their chokes too- Now if we only had a Ithaca Collectors Assn. website as do the Parkeristas, the Smith-son-ians and the Foxy Ladies do- ah yessss!!!
