Re: Fox DE "Gets The Game"

Thanks Craig!! Looks like the pic won't fit the format of the forum. Otherwise, you'd get a better look at the gun. Oh well!!

Thanks again!!!!

Fox DE "Gets The Game"

:D Hi all, well I took the 12ga Fox DE (the "questionable" DE that has had a couple threads on this forum) that I bought earlier this year out for an afternoon hunt. Thanks to my good GSP and my DE Fox, I was able to get a limit of roosters. She sure is a good handling gun and a "stra...

Re: "New" 12ga BE with Pics

:) Hi, the gun came from a private seller, not a dealer. Very good guy BTW. I'm also buying a 16ga CE from him. No card or letter yet, will have to see if there is a card on this one.

Thanks for the kind words BTW.

All the best!

Pressure Question

:) Hi all, as you may know I'm new to Fox guns (and American classics in general). Anyway, are modern 2 3/4" (standard 3 or 3 1/4 dram) loads safe for a gun made circa 1923/24? The bbls are sound.

Thanks so much!

Savage Vs. Philly DE Guns

:) Hi all, I was wondering what your thoughts are on the DE grade guns made by Savage (cira 1930's) vs. guns made in Philly? Is one better than the other or just what are the pros and cons of each?

New to Fox guns, so I'm trying to learn.

Thanks so mch!

All the best!

Greg
