Does anyone know what happened to Ithaca's double barrel line. The ones that I have seen in the past are really fine looking pieces. As of about a year or two ago, there was a website (Victor, NY??), but then they went away. Any info is appreciated.

I remember holding a Winchester Model 21, many many years ago. I believe it cost about $500 and in those days, it was cost prohibitive.
Thanks,
Ed

I'm afraid they've gone the way of the buffalo. Another firearms victim of too much overhead and not enough clientele.

Bikered,
The Ithaca doubles production stopped in the early 40's. The Win. Model 21 is being produced again by Connetticut Shotgun Manufacturing Co. affiliated with Galazan's. You may want to sit down because now they start at $11,000.00 and go up!

I live a couple of miles from what you were looking for, a company called "Ithaca Classic Doubles" they were located in Victor, NY. They had a neat place for a shop, it was in an old railroad station in Town. I am afraid they are gone. Really too bad as they put out some outstanding stuff. They were located a couple of miles down the road from Turnbull's Restoration, another absolutly first class shop.
