Ithaca 1893 Crass 12 GA

Make: Ithaca Model: 1893 Crass Caliber: 12 GA Action: Break Barrel: 30 Bore: Shiny Serial # 22280 Condition: Good Antique 1893 Ithaca Gun Co. Crass Model 12-GA Hammerless Double-Barrel Shotgun (Grade 1). Manufactured in Ithaca, NY, this historic side-by-side features the early serial number 22280 and Charles Crass patent stamps dating from 1888 and 1889. The factory-matching water table and barrel flats are crisply stamped "1" over "12," confirming its status as an authentic, factory-grade 12-gauge. Mechanically, the action breaks smoothly and locks up well. The original twist/Damascus steel barrels and engraved receiver display a beautiful, age-matured gray-brown patina. The original checkered walnut forearm remains in good condition, while the walnut buttstock is structurally complete but notes a visible crack in the wood, a common trait for a 130-year-old field gun. This is an exceptional, honest collector's piece from the black powder era. Please see the photos.Antique 1893 Ithaca Gun Co. Crass Model 12-GA Hammerless Double-Barrel Shotgun (Grade 1).
