Always the bridesmaid, never the bride, this pump shotgun has always enjoyed a loyal following.

While eclipsed by the far-better-known Winchester Model 97 and Model 12 “trench” and “riot” shotguns, the Ithaca Model 37 served from World War II all the way through Vietnam.

Ithaca Gun began production in 1883, and soon became known for making affordable and durable shotguns such as the Deerslayer and Deerslayer II. The Ithaca Model 37 is a true American classic.
