If you pump it and it goes BOOM,, it is an old Ithaca.. several years ago they put in a disconnector to stop this. If you want to shoot slugs, I would advise that you use the most open choke available. The Ithaca shotgun is a quality made gun and with a minimum of care will last a lifetime or more. Be careful with the 'Boom" thing.
