What’s Included
- SKB/Ithaca Model 200E 12 Gauge side-by-side shotgun
Built in Japan by SKB for Ithaca, the Model 200E carries the "E" designation for its automatic ejectors. This example uses split ejector hardware and the ejectors are well timed. It is chambered for 2 3/4 in shells and holds two rounds in a break-action format. Matching serial numbers on the receiver, barrel flats, and forend iron indicate a factory-mated set.
The 26 in barrels are marked "ROTO FORGED" and "PROOF TESTED" and are fitted with a solid matted rib and a single front bead for a clean sight picture. Choke stamps on the flats are "MOD" and "FULL," and the listing notes Bores: Mod, Full. This is a fixed-choke configuration.
The walnut stock set features a pistol grip, beavertail forend, and well-cut checkering for secure handling. Additional stock details include a steel grip cap, Ithaca-logo buttplate, and a white-line spacer. Length of pull measures 14.0 in for a comfortable mount and consistent shoulder position.
Controls and embellishments are practical and tasteful: a single gold trigger and a tang safety, plus factory light scroll engraving on the receiver. Markings include "CUSTOM CRAFTED FOR ITHACA BY SKB," "ROTO FORGED," "Made in Japan," "PROOF TESTED," "NP," "12" in diamond, "2 3/4," choke stamps "MOD" and "FULL," and "ITHACA GUN CO. INC., ITHACA N.Y."
