Checkering question

I am restoring the wood on a 1938 Sterlingworth. I purchased a 60 and 90 degree cutter hoping to just clean up the checkering. Both cutters seem to cut too deep and making a mess. I am assuming (and measured) that the checkering is 16LPI. I am totally new at this and stopped before I did too much da...

1927 Sterlingworth

Another shot of my Sterlingworth. I restored the wood and left the rest at is. The gun, my first Fox, was in great condition. I caught the fever and went out looking for another project. I found a Savage Fox Sterlingworth (1938) also in great condition. I plan on refinishing the wood on that as well...

Recoil Pad

Just picked a Fox Sterlingworth (1938-39). It has a broken butt plate. I like to have a red recoil pad installed that looks factory. Can anyone direct me to a source?

Savage SW

I just finished a 1927 SW and ready for another gun project. Yes I have Fox fever. Friend at a local shop says he has a Savage fox SW. From the serial number sounds like a 1937. Worth spending the money or should I wait for another Philly gun to come along. Is there much difference in quality and va...
