Said Ithaca arms on receiver, has a serious DING i right barrel, could not read / determine for chokes.
Where to find the SN, and chokes markings?
Anything other pertinent information, the brethren care to offer?
Thanks. |

| I'm far from an expert, but were Ithacas ever marked "Ithaca Arms"? Every one I've seen was marked "Ithaca Gun Company". |
