Re: BoWhoop/Letterman rules 2026

I had a question about the Baby Whoop and the Big Whoop but you very nicely explained it in your thread specific to those. Thanks Daryl.

Less than a week to go. Yippee!

Re: Fox Booth at Hausmann’s

Good comments and everyone is correct. I spoke with Ernie Tuesday morning. The AHFCA will be renting an additional table (as we did last year) so that members can sell guns. Ernie was happy last year and he sounded happy again this year. See you all there. Jeff - can non Fox items be sold on that t...

Re: Fox Booth at Hausmann’s

Thanks for posting that, Jeff. And a better pair cannot be found to attend to activities at the Fox booth.

Question: the additional table for members to sell their guns will be for Fox guns only? Or, other, non Fox guns? Just curious.

Thanks, and eagerly looking forward to next week.

Re: An XE 16 Ga. Collaboration by Jim Demunck & Walter Koulach

I sent a note to Jim DeMunck telling him about this XE12 that he helped upgrade from a Sterlingworth to a very nicely done XE. He sent me a note back and had this to say about the gun: "I remember that one. I will look through my patterns and see if I have that one in there. I may have just use...

Re: Safety too tight

I have an early 12 gauge Fox that has the push rod removed so that it did not push the safety slide back to the SAFE position when the opening lever was pushed to the right to open the action and drop the barrels. The safety slide stayed in the forward/front shooting position And the safety slide it...

Re: Headed to the Platte River in Nebraska with two Supers

The crew comes through! Looks like it was worth the trip. Is the limit on Canadas 3 out in that flyway? Any luck with the ducks? We were shooting Lessors and the limit is 5. As you know the temperaures in the west have been way above normal, not the best set up for waterfowl. We did ok with the gee...

Re: Remington "Sportsman" 12 ga.

I thought I would join the conversation and show you a 20 gauge Remington Sportsman that belonged to my grandfather. I am blessed to be the current owner and I remember him well back in the day using the gun. Mr. Jacob Gregorius from Dansville, NY where I grew up. Below are pictures of the gun along...
