Indeed it is (did some more reading) a 'Crass' Model and from the SN does appear in the 1901 range of serial numbers. Jolly Bill,Thanks for the information Sir. Proceed with caution if you find any marked this way.Hopefully, someone else may offer some thoughts.Hope this helps.Jolly. If owned by Wells Fargo & Co., the gun would probably be marked but often someone else will mark guns 'WF & CO' and try to pass them off as original. If the barrels and the rest of the gun is sound, shoot only light field loads, and carefullly.I suspect someone in the past cut the barrels back to 18 3/16'. Also, the minimum overall legal size for a shotgun is 28' I believe.Your gun probably has 2 5/8' chambers. Any shorter and the BATFE might not like it. The number 1 grade was the lowest grade they made at that time.A Krupp Steel barrel could be correct because Ithaca and other US makers started using Krupp Steel barrels around that time.18 inch barrels are the minimum legal length for shotgun barrels. The Lewis model has some better features, ie, coil springs, etc.Does the serial number on the barrel have the same number as on the receiver? You say all #'s match so I guess they do.Reason I say this is most of the Ithaca doubles made around 1901 had damascus or twist stell barrels.The number '2' over the '12' indicate the gun is a number 2 grade in 12 gauge. Rebel,With that serial number, I suspect your Ithaca double could be a Crass model or the later Lewis model. Is this a cut-down version which was done after it left the factory or could it be similar to a Wells-Fargo or Guard Shotgun? It's a mean looking Home Defense Weapon!!! Also, I am wondering if it is a 2 1/2' or maybe a 2 9/16' chamber instead of a 2 3/4' chamber. The BBL'S seem 'factroy' as the front of them are lead filled as they should be. From what I have gathered, it was made in 1901 but I can not find a reference to this shotgun in a 'short barrel' in my search. The BBLS are but 18 3/16' in length and has a brass front bead sight. Serial Number 73XXX (all parts matching numbers), on the top of the barrels it reads 'Krupp Fluid Steel', undernieith reads 'Fluid Steel - Krupp Essen (?), Under the BBLS on the receiver is 2 over 12 (frame size and gauge)? And it is engraved quite nicely. Enlighten me I have an Ithaca Gun Co 12 Gauge Shotgun.

Today with hindsight, Ithaca could make the buffers out of better plastics and have some talented machinist show the management how to make a much stronger carrier. The Model 51 is very easy to take apart, but I doubt that even 1% of the Model 51's were ever taken apart to replace buffers and recoil springs.
