As the subject says I am now the new owner of a 16ga Ithaca 37. The gun appears to be in very good condition, used but not abused. This is one of two guns I own that I wish could talk, the other is an M1 Carbine. While I was actually looking for a "riot gun", I found this one at the gunshow this weekend and fell in love with it. I have never owned a 16ga before or an Ithaca. I cannot wait to shoot it. However, I am having trouble disassembling the gun. Is there a trick to it, or maybe the barrel is just screwed in really tight. I would also like to know how old the gun is. The SN is 246594. Thanks for any info
