Fox Collectors

That's a keeper! I bet a few more waterfowl will fall to that one.

I believe the issue around the serial number and manufacture dates discrepancies is due to frames being made up in bulk and setting in parts bins waiting to be produced into finished shipped guns.

John,
I pulled out the 3 of November and left in such a hurry I forgot my winter bag. I had to stop by on Dec 1st and had knee deep snow at my place. I know about getting soft, a dusting of snow covering muddy roads in the owhee's and I am surfing the web rather than driving on grease.

I have graded 16 ga 28" 5 lbs 11 oz guns. others run up to 6lbs 4oz

Whoa! Be still my heart.

Sweet capture Frank. I have one of those on my short wish list.

Fox 16 ga XE, 28” or longer, straight stock would be nice but I am getting less picky. 16 ga B grade would be nice too.

I agree Guns come and go but the dogs steal a piece of our heart.
