Fox Collectors

Jonathan, when we were on the phone a while back, I didn't ask you if the forend was serial numbered. The engraving inside and on the latch of the forend are quite elegant compared to the rest of the gun. Not unheard of on a Becker gun, but "Is it numbered to the gun?" No the forend is no...

Found one more that was overlooked. Upon first glance I thought oh another Super Fox. I also was thinking that maybe I was seeing some Becker influences. Once I got home and took a closer look I was stumped. I am looking for any insight to how this gun came to be. Is it possible to do a card look up...

Thanks guys! Good Stuff.

Great shots Mark! I will be sure to share them with the family.

Thanks,

Hi all! Does anyone have a diagram describing the parts and areas of a SxS? I am trying to accurately describe all these guns but I am not sure I am using the proper terminology. Thanks all.

Johnathan Mike shot the photos of your Fox guns. Trust me that his photos will be worth the wait! Mark Morning Mark, Mike seemed to really know what he was doing. But you sure had a pretty nice camera yourself. Did you get any good shots with your little guy out on the coarse? I would love to see s...

Hey Fox Guys! The Reuter Collection of Fox guns, ordered by Buckingham and Bartholomew are on display today only at the Eastern Panhandle SxS shoot. Hurry guys to see the Holy Grail of AH Fox guns! Mark Mark, Can you get a couple of the pictures you took today up? I would love to see them. Thanks, ...

Thanks to everyone who made me feel welcome today at The Eastern Panhandle Side-By-Side Classic at Prospect Hall. I had a wonderful time meeting all of you and look forward to more discussion in the future about these wonderful guns. I was amazed at how much I learned in just a short afternoon with ...

Does anyone know what times and which days events are being held. I would like to come but could probably only make it for a day. Are they shooting sporting clays everyday?

Thank you so much for sharing your momentos with us. Wish I could be with ya'll at Prospect Hall, and give you a handshake. Maybe sometime on down the line.

All my best, Stan

If you are ever in the Middleburg area/ Prospect Hall area give a shoot. I would enjoy that.

Jonathan, thank you for another great post. I hope to see you at Prospect Hall this weekend. My cell phone # is 301-503-5456. Bill Murphy in MD. Hi Mr. Murphy, I was just up at Prospect Hall last weekend taking the NSCA level I instructor course. Whats happening this weekend? Ill shoot you a PM.

Hi all! I am still here and trying to compile all this wonderful stuff. Here is a little more provenance to add to the collection. I am delighted to find this inscription to my Great Grandfather. Not only was it relayed through Henry Bartholomew but it was written 24 years after the Ole Miss' inscri...

Why do I see a lot of old side by sides with a nut and bolt through the stock aft of the action? What did that repair accomplish?

I am not trying to hi-jack this thread, but it is not uncommon to see a 2 centered under the serial number on the receiver watertable of a factory ordered two barrel set. Here's a photo of the watertable of a Fox XE that was ordered as a two barrel set: http://i726.photobucket.com/albums/ww266/scau...

Jonathan.... Craig isn't the only one being killed by all these wonderful Foxes. Thank you again for sharing with us. As Dave mentioned, that numeral "2" under the serial number on the frame bar is very unusual. At least I've never seen it before. Again, I see a Becker style fancy back fr...
