The Ithaca 37 is the longest continuously produced pump shotgun in American history, manufactured since 1937. Its bottom-ejection design feeds and ejects through the same port in the bottom of the receiver, making it naturally ambidextrous and protecting the action from rain and debris. The Featherlight designation reflects the aluminum receiver.
