Shooter

Just recieved this. Gunsmith that transferred it in gave zero interest in looking it over for me. Dont need a perfect gun, just something to hammer away on. Is this something i should be concerned about? To my blind ears they ring right however the tone is slightly different than my C grade that che...

Re: Early 16 C Straight

Thanks for the info Researcher. I was assuming the pad was a latter addition. It has two different pattent dates on it. One in 1915 and another in 1927. Does that mean it was most likely produced between those dates or post?

Re: Early 16 C Straight

Yes, the escutcheons are interesting. I was thinking about starting another thread for pictures of any some might have. Saw another one in a different thread that I really liked and wondering if each one is custom or if Fox made a few different versions. Slowly making my way through the forum archiv...

Re: Early 16 C Straight

A couple more. A lot of the quality appears to be lost when I re-sized the pics.

Re: Savage Fox B-SE Series H Parts

Thanks Romac. After i posted started thinking Fox never made one but thought Savage did and knew CSMC does. Started to confuse myself. Was just looking it up. So thanks for correcting me. But you are correct in i do have no knowledge. Learning all the time, cant stop reading about them.

Re: Savage Fox B-SE Series H Parts

My view, your gun is approaching 100 years old. I wouldnt shorten it. It will still be around when we are not. No one cares now or in the future about the way YOU would like it to be. Dont ruin a fine piece of art for selfish reasons. Not to be harsh but how i look at it. Of course any man can do as...
