A fine Survivor ! TRAP SHOOTER'S DREAM!
A Classic Vintage 1916 ITHACA SINGLE BARREL TRAP 4E 12GA 34” VR SINGLE SHOT SHOTGUN - Engraved Receiver Most of the older, major-trademark American shotgun manufacturers, including Parker Brothers, A.H. Fox, Ithaca and L.C. Smith, offered a lineup of single-shot trap models in addition to their more popular side-by-sides. Trap shooting was far and away the most popular competitive shotgun sport during the last few decades of the 19th century and first half of the 20th century. This model features a Vent Rib, boxlock, auto ejector, and engraved receiver. Single barrel traps mfg before 1921 with serial numbers (like ours) under 400k generally have better engravings than ones made after with serial numbers over 400k (known as Knick models).
Features

YEAR: 1916 (using serial# 2696xx-T)

MODEL: Single Barrel Trap 4E

CALIBER: 12ga

ACTION: BoxLock

BARREL: 34” w/VR Full choke

LOP: 14-3/8”

CONDITION: Cosmetically, the SHOTGUN is in GOOD overall condition. Bore looks good no rust or pitting. Wood shows signs of use such as minor dings, nicks, and scratches. Nothing major just worth noting. Bluing looks good. Few spots of patina on top of barrel. Again, nothing major just worth noting. Action is tight as these shotguns are very well made. I have taken pictures to show any additional info on condition. Please remember that this firearm is PRE-OWNED! “A picture is worth a thousand words” Note: I am not the original owner and do not know any of the firearms history prior to my ownership. Serial number match on tange, barrel, and bottom of forearm.

Nice gun but how do you shoot trap with a single?
 
Trap is typically a single target only unless for something different they set up to throw doubles

I'm about ready to pull the trigger on another rifle but would love to see your rifle first, any way you could forward a pic or two?
Thanks,

Love your rifle! I'm needing a heavier rifle for Africa. Sold my .375 Dakota Safari several trips ago. Would you have any interest in a trade of some sort involving the custom 338/06 I have listed here on the site ( I have some room on my asking price. I also have a large quantity of the reloading components and new Redding dies as well as a box of A-Square Dead Tough ammo.
