Not yet but as soon as I get more information I will let you know. They will be starting at around 2500 and going up from there.

There is a good chance that they will.

I am hearing you will be able to spent a boatload on options if you choose, but I haven't seen anything concrete. Once I get a price sheet, I will let everyone know.

Any news on when the Larabee will be for sale? How did you get the name Larabee?

Not till closer to the end of the year I am afraid. They are backlogged with orders like you would not believe.

It was named after Roger Larrabee, who has been a barrel maker for something like 50 years or so.

I think the red Sunburst recoil pad would look great on the Larabee.

I love the sunburst pad. I've put them on a few new models and yes it would look good on the break open models!

Um-Um-Um! Those Ithaca single's have been my favorite break open gun for years! I'm still kicking myself for not buying a 1930-something trap model in a shop some years ago for under $700.00. The new ones look just as good!

I am a trap and skeet shooter. I used different guns for each. I have been saving for the Trap model 37 which looks neat to me. And I just love Model 37s...sorry.

But this gun, which I have never heard of, looks great to me. I also like the looks of the old Ithaca Trap guns.

Today, I am shooting two trap guns. An oldish Remington 870 with a modified 28" tube. I slid a cheek riser along the butt stock, and a 1917 vintage Parker SBT SC grade. I have no idea what the choke is, probably full. The Parker is about an 80/20 gun, and I shoot better with the 870, which is probably 60/40.

I like the looks of this new Ithaca. I'm just wondering if I should by the model 37?

Which brings to my mind, a question. Should I hunt up an old Ithaca Trap gun or buy this new one? Or, put another way, is this new one better than the old?

I am intrigued by what I read in the company's statements about the new Ithaca barrels. If they are as perfect as they say, maybe a new gun is the way to go. Trouble is the old guns sing to me.

The old ones sing to me as well. I own and shoot the 65 Knick made. It is hard to beat that! They were built "to stand the racket."
