Geek time. Top center, they have the Model 17 listed as a semi-automatic rifle. That was the only error I noticed, there may be more.

Nice poster though.

I just bought my first 1911...

It's based on the series 70. After stripping it to bare bones. I now realize the JMB was a f'cking genius, and years ahead of his time.

Props to the maker, and the Maker who made him. Amen.

Yeah there are some missing items, and you're right, that's the Ithaca 37.

JMB was a genius. See my Twitter name below? ;)

No, the M17 Remington is similar to the M37 Ithaca but earlier in time and I think only in 20 ga.

I have one. Nice little gun.

The M37 Ithacas are farther down to the left side of the poster, one riot gun with long magazine and one with a standard magazine.

I only have a few of his designs, the M37 Ithaca, the Browning Auto 5, the Colt 1911, the Winchester M97, one of the little Browning .22 semi-autos that break down in half, and I think that's about it.

JMB was a substantial contributor to my stock of firearms before that tragic boating accident. I am particularly fond of his shotguns and the 1911. Great man.

Doh... good catch! My excuse is I was viewing the pic from my smart phone and it looked like a 37 to me. ;)
