SKB was known in the 70 for making some cool shotguns, lots of gun for the price. Ithaca was one of the importers in the 70 and they imported them under the Ithaca name.

I just realized they are still making shotguns, not in JAPAN anymore but the new versions released at this year's shot show are getting lots of good reviews....
Specially the target semi auto:

Anybody with experience on these? I am seriously considering purchasing one.
 
I own 2- SKB over-unders. They were sold under the Weatherby name as Athena and Orion before Weatherby switched to an Italian manufacturer. Both still function flawlessly after 20K rounds. Nice fit and finish too.
 
Yeah, I know the SKB are European but not Italian though, still they are getting great reviews.
I am sure they are great guns.

Has anybody seen who is selling these here?
 
The new SKB are being made in Turkey to SKB specs.
I know of 2 in transit to Canada, and I am looking forward to getting a look at them.
I have seen the Japan made 85 model and have shot the multi barrel gauge set.
If the new Turkish made ones are as good, they will be a lot of gun for the money.
I have a few "Dunville" Ithaca SKBs and love to shoot all of them.
They have no distribution in Canada and don't appear to want any, so looks like a task for Prophet River if you are intent on getting one.
