About Ithaca M6 Aircrew SCG22HRNT
Manufactured by Ithaca Gun Co., Ithaca, N.Y. - The caliber .22/410 gauge survival rifle-shotgun M6 is for use by Air Force personnel for procurement of food when such personnel are forced down in uninhabited or hostile territory. This is the preferred weapon for this purpose; however, the M4 survival rifle was still used in certain specialized applications. The rifle-shotgun M6 is a single shot weapon of the "over and under" type. The top barrel is chambered for the cal..22 Hornet cartridge; the lower barrel will accept the .410 shotgun shell or the .410 rifled slug. A spring actuated extractor is provided. The weapon is equipped with a sheet metal stock having provision for storing ammunition. A bar type trigger is used; no applied safety is provided. The rear sight is a "flip over" type containing a peep for the rifle barrel and an open sight for the shotgun barrel. The front sight is a blade type sight adjusted at manufacture. The sight is secured to the top barrel and constructed to provide clearance around the bottom barrel. This floating feature allows either barrel to elongate independently of the other when expansion occurs due to heat produced by firing. An eyelet is provided in the front sight for attaching one end of a sling. Folding top-break with plastic storage magazine in skeleton butt. Has oiler in magazine.
