Was wondering what the value of a Ithica 37 with pistol grip stock and barrel shourd would be? It's 18", supposedly a "police" model.

Anyone got a clue as to what this may be worth?

Depends.  Is it a military/police or just a plain model 37 that's an 18" barrel somebody is calling "police"?  7 round mag tube?  Original government proof marks?  Slamfire or not?

Anywhere from $300-500 is a range, below that if it's not a real M-P.

It does have the slamfire feature. Not sure about the gov proofmarks. Does the fact that it is slamfire help?

Ok, additional info.

Has a 5 round tube, not 7.

No clear cut markings to say it s a "police" or "government" model. Though, don't really know what to look for.

Anymore input?

what's stamped on the barrel?  What's stamped on the side of the Shotgun?

Well, since you can buy good used police trade-in Model 37s from Lawmen's Safety Supply for $189, I'd say go from there. That price is for five-shot DSPS models and eight-shot riot models.

M&P & DSPS (deer slayer police special) both used 7-round magazine tubes.  M&P is parkerized, DSPS is blue.

LAPD model is a commemorative that I believe came with both short & regular barrels.  Also, I think it's actually a model 87 (with disconnector/no 'slam' fire).  Somebody correct me if I'm screwed up, which is known to happen.

I paid $400 for a perfect DSPS last January.
