Fox Collectors

If you can find a copy of "The Sporting Goods Dealer", Febuary 1920, you will find a picture of him on page 61. Good luck fnding it.

I might add that #18 only has PAT'D Aug 1, 1905

The grade should be marked on the watertable if it is a graded gun.

Mike, you might try some lead wool, as it is easy to work with and it packs tight and you can put a little in at a time and easy removed.

I don't think they would use any meas. other than from trigger to butt, regardless where trigger is located (as Craig said)and I might add there are 3 positions for the trigger, front, center and rear.

Dave, I have a early "B" #2924 which has same pattern as front forend, also an "A" #13375, shipped Jun 1912, with same pattern, "A" grade #18 has same basic layout, but without the center point. So!!

Harvey, that is an extractor gun, does not have auto-ejectors, right?

Jess, Roe Clark said that in 16 ga.'s there were 33 "D"'s and 3 "F"'s, and in 20 ga.'s there were 59 "D"'s and 9 "F"'s. I do not know if this exact or not, but thats what he came up with in 1992. I have nothing on 12's (Craig, where art thou?)

By the way, those articles are in "Double Gun Journal".

I see a lot of articles about bbl thickness or maybe thiness in the forum and all I can say, I think some of it maybe okay and some not. I will be the first to admit that I don't know alot about it, but having been raised on a one mule farm and having been in the heavy construction business for 35 y...

While looking over some of my old notes I came across a few I thought might be interesting, these are but a few of the hundreds of odd request placed by people ordering Fox guns #20205 "C" forend 3" longer #20527 "A" Lt. bbl 3", Rt. bbl 2 3/4" (chambers) #21164 &qu...

Very interesting, $7500 sterlingworth, no pictures, no return, I'm waiting to see what Dave has to say about this!

Before anyone jumps on the book they need to check the net, $60.00 -$70.00, Abebooks.com

Craig, just find an old sterlingworth with a good pad and swap it out, the fellow would probably love to have a nice new modern pad on it. If fact I happen to know where theres an "H" #31532 that has a anti-flinch pad on it.?

Rebates at top and bottom of frame like "X" grade, strange to say the least!!!
