Looking at a used but not abused Ithaca Model 37 in 16 gauge. Now, I like the Model 37, it's really the only pump I have liked. And I'll admit to being tempted by the 16 gauge factor as well. The gentleman has it priced right as well - $150.
By the serial, 65x,xxx - 2, it's from 1957 with a Modified choke. Would it be safe to use this with steel for waterfowl? I've got a nice older Stevens for upland game where lead is still ok but I need something for non-toxic that won't break the bank.
For that matter, are there any rifled slugs in 16 gauge out there, I wonder? Gotta go google
(edit: yeah, there are. Cool beans.)
If it's still there on payday, I'll probably get it anyway but it would be good to have some idea on the flexibility as I don't much like safe queens.
Thanks!
