This adjustable choke is definitely aftermarket, put on a gun that ithaca made as a 28" modified (possibly 30). My next question is if this choke can be taken off without doing any damage to the barrel, can the barrel be adapted/threaded to use choke tubes, preferably Remington? We would like to take it off without doing any damage to either the barrel or the choke.
Was it a feature that was offered by Ithaca or was it an add-on?
Is anyone here familiar enough with this choke to tell me if it's threaded, soldered or attached some other way? The barrel is stamped MOD, that makes me think that the choke was an aftermarket addition rather than a factory installed feature but I've been known to reach wrong conclusions before. The markings on the choke are JARVIS MFG INC WICHITA KANSAS. My question is about the adjustable choke. I figure the gun has no collector value but the action is so smooth and solid that it deserves to be put back into service. (I can square it up but that's irrelevant). The stock has been shortened by about an inch - 1¼" and it was apparently cut with a hack saw in one hand while holding the gun in the other hand.
ITHACA 37 SHOTGUN CHOKE SERIAL NUMBER
It functions well but the metal finish is in real bad condition, (no rust, just badly worn and uneven), and it has a huge ugly adjustable choke that looks more like a suppressor, it's almost 6" long.īy the serial number the gun was manufactured in 1949.
