    Ithaca stock identification

    Hi all,

    I got this stock in a parts lot and I've been able to deduce that its for an Ithaca 37 but do you guys know if there is any indication of what model its from? I'm a Winchester guy so I don't have a heck of a lot of knowledge when it comes to Ithaca shotguns. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Taylor C.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle.

    I have no proof by some magic marking or anything, but it IS an Ithaca 37 stock. I'm not relying on the buttplate marking either. It's just a standard shotgun butt. The model is 37, like you said.
    Regards, Jim

    Awesome, I didn't think there was much to identify it as anything else. Thanks Jim.

    M37 stock

    It does appear to be a Model 37 stock but the sling swivel attachment is not correct. Ithaca trench guns (WWII and post-war) had sling swivels that were inletted in much the same manner as the Winchester trench guns.
