I have had two of the Ithaca SKB 20 ga. Both were the base 100 models with extractors. One had 25" barrels and the other 28" barrels. The shorter barrel gun was a terrific quail and pheasant gun and one of the most reliable and trouble free shotguns I had owned. The 28" with tighter chokes was a better pheasant gun and when lead was the norm a good ducks over decoys gun. Good luck with yours.
