Will Utica Sterlingworth 20g barrels fit a Philadelphia 20g receiver with some fitting? Thanks

Jolly, not a complete gun, just the action. I could see why previous owner thought they were missing. You could see daylight through the firing pin holes. Used a block of wood and released the hammers and everything was there and worked as they should

I know this probably a needle in a haystack but does anyone have a set of 20g Sterlingworth barrels they would be willing to part with? Thanks in advance

Thank you Brian Dudley! Received the action today from the gentleman that sold it to me. Hammers were cocked and he couldn't see the firing pins and assumed they were missing. Nothing is missing thank goodness. I sure appreciate everyone that responded. Thanks again!

Went to the SASSS Spring Classic in Michigan a few weeks ago. Mr. Hosford was there and pulled the dent out of the barrel while I waited. Can't even tell there was ever a dent there

Not sure. Haven't seen it yet. Will know later this week.

I am looking for a pair of firing pins for a 20 gauge Sterly. Are the 12, 16 and 20 gauge pins the same?

Thanks for the pics. Exactly what I was looking for.

I picked up a forend for an older 20 gauge "A" grade Fox. How do I tell if the forend is for an ejector gun or an extractor gun? Thanks

I recently picked up a first year Sterlingworth 20 gauge. The right barrel has a small dent on the underside. You can see it when looking down the bore along with some light pitting. My question is, can the dent and pitting be removed if not too bad? I will try to post some pics later of the dent an...

It is the latch design and is tight from front to back, just a little loose from side to side.

What about the Deluxe with the mid bead? Are they also swamped ribs?

Thank you for the information. Is there any way to to have a gunsmith tighten up the forend or is it just something that I have to get used to? I'm used to my Sterlingworth's being tight.
Thanks again. Steve

Not a Fox but my 1926 Ithaca NID 20 gauge's forend has become a little loose. Is this common and can it be fixed easily? Thank you.

Not sure if this is in the right forum or not but did the Philadelphia Sterlingworths use any different style rib other than the concave or swamped rib style? I have a 12g and a 16g Sterlingworth and they both have this style rib. I'm looking for a 20g and just curious if the 20g will have same rib ...
