    Marking on a 37 riot

    Can anyone post a picture of the markings on a 1942 riot Ithaca 37. I’m thinking about buying one and would like to see what the markings look like thanks.

    Interesting, that sale has a 1905 bayonet instead of a 1917 bayonet. Wonder if it fits? Was fitted?

    These riot guns all fall into a very tight serial number range. Unlike the WW2 Ithaca trench guns and long barrel guns, the shipping records for these riot guns have never been found.
