It has the same kind of take down screws as that other Ithaca 37 I saw on here. They are on both sides of the receiver towards the rear. Its a flat head screw (kind of cut out 4 places around the head) with another tiny flat head screw to lock it in place. I don't know what these are for.
Well, if you don't know what they're for, it's always a good idea to leave things alone.

The two screws in question are not takedown screws or anything of that sort. They are the pivot screws for the carrier. If you get them too tight, you won't be able to cycle the action. So unless you know how to properly adjust them, leave them alone. From the looks of it, the previous owner also used cheap screwdrivers in all of the slots to try to "fix sumpthin" that wasn't wrong with the gun. Get a disassembly manual and get to know the workings of your new shotgun.
