Re: Grade a butt pad
Silver, solid red, Jostam, red with slots. Many early Fox guns with Silver pads were leather faced, an elegant option. Use the search function to see pictures of each pad.

Re: Tulsa Anyone
How close is the Tulsa Show to the airport? I assume it is not like Louisville, right across the highway.

Re: 2025 Southern Side X Side Championship and Exhibition
I carried a ten gauge AYA shooting 1 3/4 ounces of steel #2 and BB for several years. I should apologize for some of the shots I took with that gun. However, I would rather brag than apologize.

Re: Early Fox, Parker, and Ithaca Catalogs
Dave the catalog I mentioned is printed in red ink, identical to the Clown. I'll examine a Clown and see whether the back page opposite the clown cover is missing or torn off. Thanks for replying.

Re: Bonifide Rem 31 TC Long Range "Style"
Can other owners of Remington "Long Range" marked barrels report in with the bore diameters. I find it hard to believe that Remington made barrels with a .742 bore like this poster mentions. No one with a "Long Range" barrel seems to own a bore micrometer. Kevin does but his gun ...

Re: Early Fox, Parker, and Ithaca Catalogs
Dave, I have seen a catalog with the November 18, 1916 price list, absolutely identical to the Clown, but no clown cover. Is this a recognized catalog or is it a Clown catalog with the cover ripped off?

Re: Early Fox, Parker, and Ithaca Catalogs
Jason's reply on March 19 at 1:08 leads me to believe that he thinks his clown is a repro. Later posts make me think he has an original with rusty staples. What is the story, Jason?

Re: Early Fox, Parker, and Ithaca Catalogs
Jason, how did the Clown get rusty staples? What makes you think it's a repro?

Re: Early Fox, Parker, and Ithaca Catalogs
Those wild and crazy Canadians are hoarding catalogs by the dozen. Is the Clown original or repro? That should be a $2000 catalog by now. Some of those Fox catalogs are probably in the same category, but I know little about their value. The Grey Pine Cone is not in mint condition. A rare find in any...

Re: Preferred Cases for various tasks
Whatever case you find that turns you on. Best double gun cases are British oak and leather. USA cases for double guns, the Abercrombie and Fitch VC or very compact cases. They are leather covered trunk cases. Both of these examples are expensive. Holt's Auction is the best place to look for British...

Re: 31/2 Ithaca nid
Just put my minty Mag Ten up for auction. I may regret that, but it's gone. A friend bought it, and will price it for more than I will pay. Oh, well.

Re: 31/2 Ithaca nid
Serial number over #500,000 is factory 3 1/2". Lower numbers would be a 2 7/8" gun rechambered to 3 1/2".

Re: Louisville Anyone?
I used to love going to Louisville. Fly in on a ridiculously cheap Southwest flight, rent a car, drive across the street to the show, turn the car in with about a half mile on the trip odometer. Pork chop sandwich from the lobby vendor for lunch.

Re: Build Card Question
If card information somehow escapes the custody of designated AHFCA custodians, it should not be considered a theft by an unnamed person. There are more than one set of cards that aren't and never were the property of the AHFCA. Cody is one possibility, as well as some privately owned sets that neve...
