Fox Collectors

That's a nice looking fox. Hope it works out for you.

Are those original fox snap caps?

Interesting, thanks.

This is a novice question, I'm sure. I had a factory card pulled from a 1908 A grade. The card looks a little different than the later cards. There's a field next to the Gun No that says "Folio." This one is marked 12/2. 12ga? Not sure what folio is in reference to. The other fields are se...

In my business, I remind my clients that it's easier to edit than to create. N this case, it's easier to read and comment than post original content. There is a lot of great info here so I joined, but as a newbie I have comparatively less to contribute in info, but will give posting some more casual...

I've got a 12 "model 1911" just like it. One of my favorite all around guns, and one that I paid the least for of all the guns in my case. There are pictures of it on my blog here:

A flowery poster? Probably the bluing has worn to bear metal (silver-tone). I'd ask for clarification and good pictures.

I recently came across this gallery of photographs taken during the demolition of the original factory building, which is just about a half mile from where I currently live. The building was demolished by the city in 2011, and, unfortunately, these images are about all that remain. For more informat...

Shame. Thanks for your effort and knowledge. Keep an eye out.

The plot thickens! Yes, mine has the curved end cut into the wood. The recesses on the inside of your wood look right otherwise for my iron. The savage era fit clearly is not right to my iron. Question is would scooping our the wood there make it fit or is it altogether off otherwise?

I have a 1920 16 ga Philly Sterlingworth ejector that has what I presume to be a Utica forend wood piece married to the original forend iron. The serials match throughout the gun, but I'm guessing someone stamped the wood to match. It's a nice looking gun, but it drives me crazy to know that the for...

Yes, I thought the forend looked like a utica shape, too. The serials match though.

I'm a new member of the fox collectors and live in Philadelphia just a short distance from the original factory (which was unfortunately taken down by the city in February 2011). A photo of a 16 ga ejector sterlingworth that I brought back from a shop in California while visiting my family over the ...

A beauty! Congrats. I have a philly 16 ejector gun. My favorite gun.

So all of that said, isn't an ejector gun potentially worth more than the 33% premium stated in the guides? I have been looking for a philly 12ga sterlingworth ejector (I have a 16 ejector) and I can't find one anywhere except a few that are hacked in some way... cut or upgraded. The SW is a dime a ...
