If:

[a] I could (easily) *buy* a new M37 that was...

[b] ... was identical to my early-eighties (M&P) DSPS guns but ...

[c] ... was threaded for choke tubes ...

... I'd be a very Happy Bunny, *indeed*.

I love my old Ithacas but they are "tired" and parts are awkward and expensive to buy. However, the thought of a gun identical to my favourite M37 DSPS but *without* reliability issues makes me dribble.

Regards,

Mark.

P.S. I *have* managed to sort out my gun's main problem - a *huge* number of FTExes - but, I think, my FTF problems may need the services of a welder or the purchase of some expensive spares. (One of my gun buddies keeps suggesting that "it's time to hang that old relic over the mantlepiece". I don't *fink* so...)
