Ithaca 37

The Ithaca 37 is a pump-action shotgun unlocked for at level 22.

Overview
The Ithaca 37 has high damage compared to most other guns, and is capable of killing most police units in a single shot. Despite its low accuracy, the player can still land shots easily due to the bullet's spread. Like other shotguns, it lacks range and therefore can only be used reliably in short to medium distance.

It has a quite deep ammo pool, but its magazine is very low, so the player might find themselves reloading often. Luckily, the reload speed is quite fast compared to the other non-automatic shotguns. With Shotgun Blaster Aced skill, its magazine size increases to 22. This weapon can also be viable to use in a dodge build, because of its high damage and somewhat high concealment. The Ithaca's recoil is rather manageable, provided you don't shoot fast. Its ammo pickup rate is decent for a shotgun, at 4 ammo per box.

Tips

 * Despite this weapon already having a high base damage for a shotgun, it can be improved more and have more of a magazine by shotgun skills to make this a beast in loud builds.
 * Acquiring the Surefire skill makes the weapon deadly against all enemies, being able to instantly kill Skulldozers and enemies behind it.

Conclusion
Overall, the Ithaca 37 is a decent weapon for loud heists and its $276,550 price tag and a low level requirement of 22 makes for a well rounded shotgun. However, it cannot be used in stealth reliably because it lacks a suppressor attachment. A better choice for higher levels with more money would be the Remington 870, as it has a suppressor and better stats.
