There are some things in this world that are just classics. 57 Chevy, 68 Camaro and the Colt 1911. Saw this in the case and made the mistake of asking to hold it. What a beauty. Can't wait to get out and shoot it.

Still very tight. I took off little bits of the pin at a time until I could just fit it.

Have a problem and hope somebody can give me some guidance on what I should do. I bought this maybe 4 years ago. It has mainly stayed in my safe. The couple of time I shot it, I sprayed a little CLP down the barrel and ran a bore snake through it to clean it. After owning it for about 3 years I finally took the upper off the lower. The pins were really tight. I had to hammer a punch pretty hard to get that first pin out. The second pin came out easy. I cleaned everything and went to put the upper back on. One pin would go in but the other would not. With one pin in, I used a flash light to look through the other pin holes and the holes in the upper and lower do not match up. The holes in the upper and lower are about 1/32" off. I don't know how they got it assembled at he factory but I guess that is why it was so hard to get the first pin out. The quick solution to get it back together was to grind one side of a pin down till it fit. I haven't shot since I got it back together. I have manually cycled a 20 round mag thru it and everything fed fine. What should it do? Should I leave it alone and not worry about it? send it back to Bushmaster? etc... I would appreciate any opinions anybody has... PS - The couple of times I have taken it out it has performed flawlessly. Never had a problem with it until now.

Very cool. Nice shooting!

The barrels are probably choked differently. One full and the other modified. That is how most double barrel shotguns are done. Are there any markings on the gun? Put up some pics. Would love to see it.

the MK9 is a great gun. It is a little heavy for pocket carry but carries fine in a holster. I like to pocket carry so i sold my MK9 and got a PM9. The PM9 is 1/2 lb lighter.

Nice deer. Would love to find those sheds when they drop.

My daughter and I are going. It is a tradition we started years ago. Whenever the convention is in town we have a father/daughter day. It is a lot of fun.

This is what Blue Book says: BULLDOG - .44 Spl. cal., 5 shot, 2 1/2 or 3 (disc. 1988) in. barrels, wide trigger and spur or pocket hammer, checkered bulldog grips (walnut or neoprene), blue or electroless nickel finish. Disc. 1991, reinstated 1994. Disc.1996. Grading 100% 98% 95% 90% 80% 70% 60% $225 $195 $155 $125 $110 $90 $70 Bluebook is not always accurate. Check on gunbroker and see what others are going for.

Next time put him in the bag then hit him with the shovel. That way the guts are contained. Or leave the splattered carcass out as a warning to the other chipmunks...

Were you able to view the security footage?

I was checking one out yesterday. It felt really good in my hand. Came up naturally with sights in alignment for my grip. Would love to hear some other peoples experience as to reliability and function. Thanks. PS - I was looking at a 9mm. This will not be my primary carry gun. Mainly a range gun.

You also might want to check out a scuba diving store. Always used anti-fog stuff on my diving masks.

Cool. Can't wait to see pics of the springfield.

I don't know if that is funny or scary...

Here is what BlueBook says: ITHACA HAMMERLESS - 12, 16, 20, 28 ga., or .410 bore, 26-32 in. fluid steel or damascus barrels, boxlock, extractors, double triggers, any standard choke, checkered pistol grip stock and forearm, grades shown differ in overall quality, ornamentation, grade of wood, and style of checkering. In 1925, the rotary bolt and stronger frame were adapted (ser. numbers after 400,000 - commonly referred to as NID or New Ithaca Double). Values are the same as for pre-400,000 serial range shotguns. Ithaca doubles incorporated a number of design changes made on the action - they are referred to as the Lewis, Crass, Flues, and Minier frame variations. Add $200 for SST. Add $150 for SNT. Add $350 for VR on Grades 4, 5, 7, and $2,000 Grade. Add $200 for VR - lower grades. Add $175 for beavertail forearm. Add 33% for auto ejectors on Grades No. 1, 2, and 3. Subtract 33% if without ejectors on Grades 4E-7E. Early hammer doubles in average condition are approx. valued between $175-$450. However, if 60%+ condition remains (including original case colors), values can approximate those listed. Values below are for guns mfg. between 1925-1948. Grade No. 3 12 ga. Grading 100% 98% 95% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% $2,300 $2,075 $1,850 $1,500 $1,200 $1,000 $800 $750 $700 $650 $600 $550

If this is a grade 3 NID, then blue book puts the value at $1500 for 90% condition. If you have any other pics or info I will try to do some more research for you tomorrow.

Thanks for the info guys. Was thinking about going tomorrow but weather might be an issue. I will start a new thread after I go about the trip.

That's exactly what it sounds like. Damage control.

Wow. You can actually here the beep, beep, beep where Rick is backing up. He claims there is lawsuits over the nashville city paper article because they misquoted him.
