Hi all,

New to the board and thought I would introduce myself and the family m51 featherlight. Had it out at the range the last few weekends and its been functioning flawlessly but want to make sure it stays that way.

Already spoke to Les (found him on the sponsor forums here, thanks!) and will be sending it to Ithaca, NY next week. Hopefully I'll get it back in a few months looking like new :D

Thanks!

My Father picked it up new in '74. I believe he had it rebuilt by the factory in the 80's for a firing pin issue. But other than that it's been working great ever since. Some replacement parts and some reblue work and she'll be back out on the trap field.

That's great.Been in the family since 1974.Must be some great stories to go with the shotgun?

I have my brother's 12 gauge Ithaca Model 37 that's been in the family since he purchased new in 1973.

Purchased my 28 gauge Ithaca Model 37 new in 2009.
