Help!
I just bought my 3rd Ithaca M37 at one of the local pawn shops. When I tested the slide on the weapon, the barrel kept falling off. After further inspection, I noticed the flange on the end of the barrel was bent outward. I believed that this barrel was beyond repair ( My gunsmith confirmed this later) and so I offered $100 for the receiver, tubular mag, and factory pistol grip stock....SOLD! So I called Ithaca guns USA to order a replacement barrel. While they confirmed that the serial #on the receiver was within the range of the barrels they manufacture, the individual stated that they are extremely backlogged and also moving to a new facility. He then stated that he did not know when they would be back in product of replacement barrels. He said it could be as long as six months to a year! Can anyone help me with another source for a DSPS barrel? It needs to be compatible with the extended factory tubular magazine. I checked e-bay with no luck. Thanks, 66912
