    I want to find and buy back my old Ithaca 4E SBT. NID.
    I had sold it in Ohio. Then I relocated to California. I had to sell it for funds to cover some of my expenses moving to Long Beach Ca. It would mean the world to me to have back. It’s sort of a rarity and easy to identify in its own right ! It has a factory English straight stock arrangement in that it has that long LONG trigger guard extension to it. And also has a nickel plated receiver and trigger guard. Also, the forearm is tipped with Ivory instead of the original black ebony The serial is 400,639, if I remember correctly. If Anyone has seen it please contact me. 661-902-1602, text or call. I originally purchased it gutted and had no wood. When got it there was the barrel, forearm metal with no ejector mechanics, Only thing on the receiver was the floor plate wit trigger. Lastly there was now top lever. I rebuilt it back in the mid to late 70’s. It is by no means a collector piece. Very little of it is original. What it does have is sentimental value to me. I’d love to purchase it back, or at least know where it ended up. Picture is of me at the Gran in 1981, 38 years ago, I was 32 years old in the picture.
    The picture is s picture of a picture so it could be clearer. Note the ivory inlay in the forearm
    Any help in finding it would be greatly appreciated ‘! ! !

    Thank you for the offer, but I already have a 5E SBT, and love it!!!
    I’m looking for that specific one I described because of sentiment value to me.
    I’m also in the market for an Ithaca SxS 20 ga NID Grade 1. Pre 1933 that has the cocking indicators
