No-name Ithaca single barrel?

[jhallrv4]

I've looked for two days to find some info on what appears to be an Ithaca single barrel trap, imported from Italy. There is no name on the gun anywhere.
It also doesn't have the usual trap shooter engraved on the sides.

I did see one reference to the "Perazzi no-name imported by Ithaca" but no additional info.





Any ideas?

Just curious, I'm not really much of a shotgunner, but why would it be a no name Ithaca other than a no name Italian shotgun imported by someone else?

Because it looks exactly like an Ithaca single barrel trap without the name. It came in an Ithaca case, the shop owner has an Ithaca that is exactly like it.

Other possibilities are Gamba, an other lesser known Italian makers.

It says made in Italy on the barrel, but has a Simmons rib, from Kansas City.

If it don't have Ithaca stamped on it, It ain't an Ithaca. Got nice case colors, don't think that lock up is Perazzi but I'm no expert.

IF it is an Ithaca from Italy, then it IS a Perazzi

I seem to recall that the mark "fusil special" is, or was, used by Gamba.

It's Monday morning, and I've been at work for over 2 hours, and I have no idea why I know this.

P.S. - Okay, after some searching, here's a Gamba trap gun. It has similar markings; see pics 27 and 30 for instance.The engraving is similar, see pic 9.

That's it!!! Except for the upgraded furniture, this is the gun. The "Stoeger trap gun" isn't seen on the local gun because of the Simmons rib that has been installed. Thanks, guys!
