Description
The Howdah Pistol is a reproduction of the famous Auto & Burglar model made by Ithaca Company around 1920. This modern version features rifled barrels chambered for .45LC/.410 (3″ shells) and it is sold as a pistol. The Vintage Howdah features: case hardened steel frame, browned finish octagonal barrels, external hammers, manual shell extractors, flip-up rear sight with brass bead front sight, and a walnut stock.
