Really I take anything 410,20,16,12
These are great shotguns.... I'm am amazed that they bring the money that they do.... they have become a collectible gun now.
I seen at least one at the recent Knoxville gunshow. Good luck in your search.

Yes it's crazy I saw a guy there had some 12 20 and 16's wanting over 1200.00 for them I have 4 that I only paid about 150.00 for. But I'm not paying a 1000.00 for one. That's crazy.
Look for 370, they made em in Canada but I have shot both and really couldn't tell any difference in quality. 370 is cheaper

Is the 370 like the 37, only made in Canada? I had a 37A 28g that was made in Canada, but it was different than the 37. I have a 12g 37 and agree, they are great guns.
This brings back some awesome memories for me.
I got a model 37A youth 20 gauge for Christmas when I was 12.
I have since passed it to my son.
Great little gun. Mine is improved modified.

As far as I can tell there almost identical, feel the same and handle the same. Both are sweet shooting

I googled up some pics of the models in question. To me, the 370 is more like the 37a. The 37 has the hammer/break down lever reversed.

Good luck in finding what you're looking for at anything close to reasonable.
I have two Model 37s in 410 that I got very good deals on a few years ago after looking for years. One is a 26" barrel Red Letter Pigtail Small Hammer that Winchester has no record of ever making. She's a safe queen. The other is 28" barrel Large Upturned Hammer that I occasionally hunt with. The aged patina on both is outstanding and not a negative mark on either one. I feel blessed to have them and have less than $600 total in both and neither is for sale

What is a "pigtail small hammer"? The hammer on my 12g is almost flat. Didn't realize they had different hammers.Good luck in finding what you're looking for at anything close to reasonable.

The pigtail was made from rolling a straight piece of steel forward toward the muzzle, back over itself and causing it to make a loop with a teardrop shape hole for the "thumb" spot vs being a stamped/solid thumb piece as you describe. I'll take some pics and post shortly.

I've seen a bunch of mod 37s at turkey shoots (card not feathers) that had been sleeved and scope mounted. These were serious card shooters where a lot of money changed hands.
