I don't see them on their websites anymore, why is that?? They've stopped selling them?? Or am I just blind?

Featherlight? Are you talking about the LIMITED PROTUCTION run they did recently? Yep, no more IIRC. Just buy a used Remington Model 17.

If you can find them (and I just did today!!!!) Remington Model 17's are bottom eject 20ga, VERY light gun. It is the gun that Browning and Pederson designed that the Ithaca is a virtual copy of. The Browning BPS is a refined and revisited design based on the Browning/Pederson patents.

The Rem 17 is a fine little upland gun. So are the Ithacas, including the alloy framed jobs that run about 5 1/2 lbs in 12 gauge. Hard kickers though.

The 17s are not hard to find, but prices have escalated. NRA Good condition here is about $250 up.
