HI,
NEED HELP !! pics. of old carrier..
Having trouble with a ITHACA MODEL 72 lever action .22LR.
Carrier is bad. Have not been able to find one.
I either need a machining print or another carrier.
HERE IS WHAT I HAVE FOUND OUT:
Ithaca Model 72 is a variant of the Erma Werke of Dachau, Germany Model EG-71..
Made from 1973 to 1979, this rifle was offered in .22 Long Rifle and .22 Magnum only. It had an 18 1/2" barrel.
The lever gun was designed by Erma of Germany.
Some years after Ithaca stopped production Iver Johnson picked it up and marketed it as the "Wagonmaster".
My gunsmith had a Iver Johnson " Wagonmaster "in the shop when he was working on my rifle.
He told me it used a lifter- not a carrier to cycle the round.
It is basically the same rifle that Henry is producing today.
Ordered a carrier from Henry ( H001) they are not the same!!
