Ithica model 37 guys....
My first shot gun was a model 37 plain barrel 12 gauge that I got for 35 bucks. Ran across this one on the auction side and never realized that they even made some this nice..[:0]

Oh yeah!!![^]0 -
I have owned several and liked them in the past but had to sell due to life [:D]
but like you I did not know they made a higher grade and that one is a nice looking shotgun ( but then about all company's offer a up grade version so I guess I just never thought about a model 37 )0 -
That's a pretty shotgun!
I;m not sure it's $2100.00 pretty, but it's pretty!
I love a skeleton grip cap!
The slick smooth action on a Model 37 is a treat to work!0 -
Beautiful Ithaca [;)]. Check to see if it still has the Ithaca proof mark stamped on the receiver (small hammer and anvil). A friend of mine back in the 60's and 70's would send them and Browning A-5's to Japan for a complete make-over and they would came back absolutely beautiful leaving one speechless......if it's a true Ithaca get documentation of their work if possible. Either way "pricey" but in opinion worth it [:)] 0 -
my friend bought a '37 deerslayer model right before slug season one year in Illinois. went to sight it in, pumped a slug up from the magazine. the action was so smooth it fired it right away upon closing....same thing happened 4 more times....back to gun store for an 870 remington.[:(!] 0 -

It's a slam fire gun, gotta keep the finger off the trigger [;)] [:D]0 -
Six decades ago, I had a delightful 20-ga 37 with a Poly-Choke. Then I started trap shooting, and it went away in favor of an 870 12er. The 37 was the slickest-working pump shotgun ever. 0 -
My second shot gun growing up was a 37 in 16ga and it was great and my dad traded it for a Rem 1100 while I was in the service.
Thought so much of it I bought one a few years back for the memories0 -
I've owned several, have 2 right now. Love them, but you can't dress one up enough to add up to $2100 0 -
I am a big fan of the model 37 and Browning BPS. Best pump guns in my opinion.
Would love to own the one in the auction.0 -
37's were made in standard, Deluxe and Supreme grades as well as some parkerized and plated ones. I have a 12ga. Supreme with really nice wood, Gold plated trigger & slide release and a grip cap with a buck on it. I can't figure out how to post pictures here, not real computer savvy. 0 -
37 actions were like butter. Also a light carry shotgun. 0
