Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Ithaca/SKB Model 900 is a mid-20th-century import shotgun that pairs Japanese SKB workmanship with Ithaca Gun Company distribution — essentially an SKB-manufactured semi-automatic sold in the U.S. under the Ithaca name. Mechanically, the non-“XL” 300/900 family is a recoil-operated semi-auto (the “XL” variants moved to gas systems), offered most commonly in 12-gauge with 2¾" chambers and long 28–30" sporting barrels; many surviving examples carry full or improved cylinder chokes and a chrome-lined bore that helped the guns tolerate a broad range of factory loads. Fit and finish are typically solid for an import of its era: stamped or light-forged metalwork paired with decent wood or synthetic furniture, depending on trim, and receiver and internal parts are widely supported by parts houses because Ithaca imported and catalogued these as Model 300/900 series shotguns. The Ithaca catalog and modern SKB owner resources make clear the shared lineage and part interchangeability across the SKB/Ithaca imports, which simplifies repairs and parts sourcing when compared with more obscure private-label firearms.

In the field, the Model 900 earns a practical reputation: reliable cycling with standard target and hunting shells when the recoil system and carrier are clean, pleasant handling for its weight class, and good value on the used market — though it is not a precision sporting gun and will not match premium European or American autoloaders for refined triggers or bespoke balancing. Common owner-level caveats are important to note: the recoil-operated mechanism benefits from correct spring and carrier condition (worn springs or damaged carriers are common wear items), extractors and bolts should be checked for peening or breakage, and magazine tube followers and caps sometimes require replacement after heavy use. Because various runs used a mix of imported SKB components and Ithaca-sourced receivers, fitment and finish can vary between examples, so buyers should function-test with multiple loads and inspect for proper headspace, a tight barrel/receiver fit, and smooth carrier movement. Overall, the Ithaca/SKB 900 is best viewed as a workmanlike, affordable semi-auto with broad parts support and straightforward maintenance needs — a sensible choice for hunters and shooters who want a dependable used semi-auto without paying collector prices.
