Introducing a true American classic, the Ithaca Flues Model Side By Side Shotgun. Perfect for both collectors and hunting enthusiasts, this 1924 model has been preserved in good condition, and holds a rich history with a touch of authentic charm. Despite showing some signs of prior use and handling, it has maintained its robust and reliable nature, making it a worthy addition to any firearms collection.
Boasting a 12 Gauge caliber, the shotgun offers a fair bore condition, with a clean but not smooth bore due to dents in both barrels. Its side-by-side action is complemented with a 2-round capacity, and its 24.5" blued barrel further enhances its aesthetic appeal. The shotgun features a wood stock with checkering and a comfortable recoil pad, along with a very large brass front bead sight/optic. It has a 2 3/4" chamber and a cylinder bore choke, promising a balanced and precise shooting experience.
The Flues Model is adorned with a game scene engraving, following the basic Ithaca flues pattern, offering a unique glimpse into its manufacturing heritage. It comes with a double trigger and extractor only. Please note, a piece of stock at the ear is broken off, and the barrel has been cut short with an awkward clamp installed at the muzzle, adding to its distinctive character.
This shotgun is a great choice for collectors of Ithaca firearms, offering a tangible piece of history and a testament to the quality and craftsmanship of American gun manufacturing. Don't miss the opportunity to own this remarkable piece of Ithaca's legacy.
