There are multiple versions of the Ithaca Deerslayer, and prices will vary to some degree, depending on EXACT model and EXACT condition. For an average Deerslayer, value could run from $200-$300.

The Ithaca Model 87 Deerslayer typically requires a specific set of scope mounts designed for its unique receiver design. Most commonly, the Weaver-style bases or specific mounts made for the Ithaca Model 87 are used. It's crucial to ensure that the mounts are compatible with the 20-gauge model, as there can be variations between models. Always consult the manufacturer's specifications or an expert for the best fit and compatibility.
