   That gun would rip my shoulder off. From the actual 1901 catalogue… Winchester Model 1897 (damn it was modern!) 12 gauge $25. An Ithaca No 1 1/2 ran you $45. Must have been a hell of a gun! A Smith and Wesson pistol was about $17 !

   It is worse than that! They are still selling hammers,knives and axes by mail order in the UK!
   How much was $99 in 1955 worth in today’s currency?

     Yeah I know that, it was really an expensive gun in it’s time. But how many auto shotguns were available in that time? I bet not too many, But I am supprised Sears was selling them!

   Hmmm … 12 gauge. The natural enemy of the alarmist.
