Fox Collectors

This is sad news for sure. I knew Paul from the shoots and bought a double rifle from him several years ago. He even offered to load the shells for me. A very nice guy he will be missed.

It was a very enjoyable article and led me to the purchase of the straight grip 16 pictured. Not to wish summer away but I'm looking forward to grouse season

I have a CSM Fox FE 410 and it's a wonderful gun. I shoot Quail with every year when I go to Georgia. I'd never leave it behind.

IIRC the rate at the Quality Inn in Faquay-Varina was $69/night compared to $99/night at the Hampton. There will be lots of shooting at Drakes all day Thursday as nothing is really going on at Deep River.

I'll bring the custom XE 16 to Ernie's. straight grip, 26 inches of open choked bores and a proven killer of Grouse and Woodcock. I'll miss the FOX/Parker challenge if the deer and antelope gods smile favorably with tags. I need to blood two new custom rifles

This is an excellent event. One of the best shoots by far of the season.

I thought it was a rule that all Quail guns be 20ga and smaller and sxs configuration only.......I'm just sayin

I'll be there Wed at noon with lots of shells. The new Fox won't be there until Thursday am this is like waiting for X-Mass

It was a great time that's for sure, lots of birds, great dogs, guides and accommodations. It's worth the trip just to leave Michigan in January :D I didn't score a double with either Fox the 410 or the upgraded XE 16 so I guess a Fox doesn't get the game :lol: Scored doubles with the Parkers in 28 ...

My upgraded 16ga SW has ejectors as does a 12ga 30 inch gun I just bought as an upgrade candidate then what do you know but a great condition 12ga 32 incher pops up at a small local shoot. That one came home as well and it will stay as Fox intended it.

I wouldn't lengthen the chambers what I would do if you plan on shooting it a lot is start reloading. I load 2 1/2 inch RST hulls in all gauges and a 3/4oz 20 ga load is pure heaven to shoot.

I'm looking forward to going to south Georgia the end of January. We did hit a wild covey but that is the exception to the rule. Two new Quail guns this year, an upgraded SW 16ga and a WR Pape 28ga hammer gun to go along with the Fox FE 410. Someday wild birds for sure.

Frank that's a very nice looking gun congrats! I'm in the process of doing a custom Fox for target shooting. I have the blank narrowed down to one of nine potential candidates. I'm of the opinion if you want a nice graded Fox 20 esp if your looking for something with long barrels than CSM is the way...

Golden Fox I appreciate your insight and advise, unfortunately your 20+ Parkers, 15 16ga's, 4 Fox's ( bought a vey nice 32 inch SW yesterday) behind the curve. I won't get into the Pre64 M70's or the custom rifles (my 4th 7X57 is in the works) or the varmint rifles it just takes up to much time. I h...

I just bought a 30 inch 12ga Sterlingworth with ejectors. If you would like the serial number for your data base just let me know.
