Fox Collectors

sold barrels and reciever

Well I bought sterlingwroth and upon closer inspection barrel and receiver didn't match (Learning opportunity for me).

Bought with barrels 55085 listed below 12 ga sterlingworth

12ga Sterlingworth 28 inch .015 and .030

This was my first experience, trigger work. I will contact the gunsmith. Thanks all

is there any reason that a reputable smith to bugger up screws.

Thanks gentlemen Let me share a tip I failed to follow when the screws were just loosening up. A local smith suggested I put Loctite on the bevel of the screw head (not the treads) its metal to metal on the bevel and countersink and may of saved me this fix. ( a stitch in time saves nine) thanks aga...

Yes the forend iron with wood screws remained on the gun. The wood forend came off. The screw holes are stripped. looking for a recommended repair. Drill out and fit dowel, matchsticks, putty what would be the right way to do this repair. I looking for something to last. Thanks for you help.

I bought my first Fox Sterlingworth last year and shoot it full time. The forend would loosen after several rounds and I would retighten and looks like over tighten. Last outing the forend wood separated off the screws. Looking for repair suggestions.
