I was able to locate a few 'riot' Model 37's with, side folding bayonet, 7-round mag tubes, and 18 inch barrels, but the dealer wanted a bit more than I wanted to pay for a LE/military retiree ($500). I was looking for one a while back, also. It's weight is about half that of a Mossberg 590A1. With the exception of the previously mentioned rattling forarm, it feels very solid. Parts and accessories are nearly non-existant, but I really like the action design. I've got an old Ithaca Model 37 and like it quite a bit. issued the Ithaca in years gone by also.Īll in all it was/is a good shotgun, only it was superceded by the Remington more or less in police dept circles starting in the mid to late 60s. One thing to be aware of when buying Ithaca barrels is that they changed how they mount so you must know the serial number cutoff (don't have it handy at the moment) and the serial number of your receiver or you may buy the wrong barrel. it is though, they just have that looseness built in (at least on all of the Ithacas that I've seen) The forearm doesn't feel as though it is tightly attached to the action bars. The one thing I don't care for is that they feel 'clunky' or loose when handling. I don't have the left hand safety, though Ithaca did offer one several years ago. The downward ejection is a plus when out in the weather and doesn't throw empty hulls across a lefthanded shooter's line of sight. I've got two Ithacas in the safe and I really like them.

Each time it has been resurected by a different set of owners. T believe the main reason you don't see many Ithacas discussed is that the company has gone under several times.
