I had an Ithaca like that.
My dad currently has my late uncles's Ithaca .410 single shot. It was the first gun I went squirrel hunting with. It looked like a lever-action rifle without the magazine tube. The lever broke open the action.
**About a month after my uncle died (back in 2010), my dad went and got the gun from my aunt to use to kill squirrels in the pecan grove. When he pulled under his carport on his golf cart, the barrel was hanging over the edge of the seat and got caught on a column and bent around in a nice arc. I was sick to my stomach when he showed it to me. Luckily, one of our neighbors is a gunsmith and he had an an arbor and plate that was made to straighten barrels....when he was finished, it looked as good as new (I think I posted pics back then).
