This extremely scarce example of the M6 Survival gun was manufactured by Ithaca for the United States Air Force. Legal length 18-1/4 inch barrels are on this specific example. Chambered for the .22 Hornet cartridge and the .410 shotgun shell. Marked on the left side of the receiver "U.S.A.F. PROPERTY/137372/RIFLE-SHOTGUN. SURVIVAL./CAL. .22/410, M6". The right side is marked "ITHACA GUN CO., INC. ITHACA N.Y.", with the crossed cannon ordnance mark beneath.

Very fine, 98% original finish on breechblock and stock remaining, showing only a few light nicks and faint scuffs. A unique find in any condition and this one is not to be mistaken with the commercially sold newly manufactured examples. Mechanically excellent. This is U.S.A.F. issue with legal length barrels installed.
