Not a gunwriter, but an Ithaca fan.
I don't think they'd be too happy calling their 37 a "reproduction", rather current Ithaca production.
From what I've learned, Ohio Ithaca shotguns are about the best ever, especially compared to some of the guns made by the series of owners up to current. Maybe original Lou Smith guns would give these a run. I have a pre-war first yr. production 20 ga. 37R with solid rib. It's pretty nice.
Check out their latest, a M-700 clone rifle.
