Howdy, guys - my next door neighbor came over with his very old, family-passed-down, Ithaca Model 37 Featherweight. He is not an experienced shooter.
He thought the gun was malfunctioning at the trap range. It fired when he closed the slide.... now, I'm familiar with Winchesters of that period like my Model 12, and it will fire all day if you hold the trigger down when you close the action. I looked at his Ithaca and I think it's designed to work the same way.
Just to be sure, can someone confirm that for me? Will the Ithaca fire if you hold the trigger down when closing the action?
Thanks.
