Good evening, Gentlemen.
I inherited a late 70's Ithaca 37 from my late grandmother a few years ago. I've never fired it, and only taken it down and cleaned it a few times. When I got it, everything seemed to be in good working order. However, the last time I reassembled it, the pump/slide would not lock forward. Of course, I looked all over the net and always came to a dead end, even on this site, where in '06 a thread was made regarding this exact issue. There was only one reply; a link that is now a 404 redirection. I recently took the 37 out of its case to do some routine maintenance, and decided to fix this once and for all. If anyone here knows how to fix this I would be eternally grateful.
Also, ever since I got it, the receiver has been missing one of the tiny carrier-lock screws that holds the larger carrier screw in place. Again, I have searched high and low for a source for replacementsbut have yet to find a single mention of it. If anyone has a customer service number or better-yet a link to purchase one, I'd be much obliged.
TL;DR: hoping to find out how to fix the slide on ithaca 37 from not locking forward and also need source to order replacement carrier-lock screw.
