My first year in college, 1956, I won a raffle for a 12 ga, mod, plane barrel, Model 37. Tickets were 50 cents and I bought two. As I recall, the gun weighed 6.25 pounds. I put a lot of rounds through it after mostly quail, dove, duck, and jack rabbits. After a few years, it started dropping some to most of the shells from the magazine when the pump was operated. Local talent was not up to a repair, so I traded it off. Later, I found out that the factory could easily fix it.
I still have a soft spot for 37s, and am considering a new 28 ga.
