Hi,
I need your help!

Two days ago I shot a M37 Featherlight. I was amazed. Very good craftsmanship. Excellent handling and shooting results.
Now, I am an Ithaca-Addictive (Sorry for my English, I am a Kraut)

But the magazine capacity is to low. My preference would be 8+1 in 2 3/4
So I came to the DSPS.

With which barrel lengths the DSPS have been produced and which mag capacities do the have?
I am planning to buy a used one, but here in Germany is the legal minimum barrel length 18,11 inch.

Thank you!!!


Best regards from Germany

The Deer Slayer Police Special ( DSPS) was made in a 8+1 variation with a 20" barrel...

In the UK, they all seem to be 24" which is the minimum length permitted for pump-action shotguns over here.

Mine hold 7+1 using 70mm ammo but, of course, will hold anywhere from 6+1 (long buckshot or slug) up to 10+1 (special short ammo for old 2" chambered guns):


Hope this helps.

Regards,

Mark.
Came late in life to shooting but is making up for lost time...
