Fox Collectors

Silvers, thank you so very much. While stumbling along and reading other posts I came across a question that directed my pea brain to the grade stamping and barrel markings part of the directory. When I saw a photo of the forend with ejectors attached I had a Eureka moment and looked at my forend. O...

I have just done something I am sure no other A. H. Fox owner has ever done. I pulled the triggers on my Sterlingworth 16 gauge ejector gun and then disassembled the gun for cleaning. Upon trying to put it back together I discovered that the forearm would not go back on the gun. My first guess is th...

Recently I purchased two 16 gauge Fox Sterlingworth shotguns, one 28 inch extractor gun and the other one a 26 inch ejector gun. Both looked to be in good shape but upon firing them some issues became evident. On gun number 1, with the 28 inch barrels the shells would not extract after the gun was o...

To my knowledge it has never been recased. Colors are bright and shiny inside the forearm but the action shows only small amounts of case coloring except for under the lever which has quite a bit but is of course fading. I do not have a proper screwdriver for the screws and am still somewhat concern...

Good morning, I am a new member though I have not received any documentation so far. I am also waiting for factory letters on two 16 gauge Sterlingworths I recently purchased. I have a couple of questions on one of them, serial number 368277. The floorplate does not tighten down flush with the botto...
