UK SKB's
Posted: Thu Nov 16, 2017 2:19 pm
In my quest to find an Ithaca SKB (I recently missed a stock, action and fore end only in a sale) I bid blind on an English stocked Model 100 based on a grainy picture and a wild guess. It turned out not to be Ithaca branded but is a nice little 28" non ejector with good (no cracks) wood which I am sure will clean up a treat. It has a useful 14 1/4" LOP, normally I find that English straight stocked guns are a touch on the short side, so not a bad result, especially with the price, £25 (about $30 US) plus a tank of diesel to go and get it. So, still looking for the elusive and unusual (for the UK) Ithaca's but quite happy nonetheless. Pictured here with my earlier find, the 26" Model 200E, not quite a pair but good working guns anyway.
