Fox Collectors

Outstanding, Roger! That is a REALLY big female; I've got a European woodcock I shot in Scotland mounted on my wall and its not really all that much bigger than the one you bagged! Sixty-some degrees here today in NOVA and my covers await....Kevin

Fireman, I can also recommend Mike Orlen highly. He reworked the rib extension, extractor rims, and ejector alignment on an HE Fox for me years ago to correct a horrible amateur welding job someone had done to get the gun to close and open properly again. Kevin

And definitely not beyond the realm of possibility given the social strata of those potentially involved. Kevin

What a charming and beautiful dog! The rooster and the gun ain't bad either!! Kevin

Great pics and story! Its been years since I had an opportunity for Phez and Sharpies in SD. Last time we hunted a combination of public and private lands south of Pierre down near Murdo, Presho and White River. Phez are always exciting but I have to say Sharptails are my ultimate favorite birds of ...

FWIW, I think the SKUGG in 16 ga. 26" version is the finest grouse gun ever designed and built. Light, fast handling, most are bored wide open (.004-6" RB, .010-12" LB), they are ideal for the dense coverts grouse and woodcock prefer. Kevin

One of our "Resident Reynards" swing by this morning for a pre-Thanksgiving visit. Kevin

Especially nice photos and very nice birds! Dogs look hard core and having fun!! Thanks for posting them. Kevin

"Dog", contact Breck Gorman. He repaired the rib on my Fox J Grade SBT and did an outstanding job. I was shooting trap with it one day at our local club and noticed that the ivory bead at the muzzle was no longer there. Apparently the solder broke at the first rib stanchion (post), the one...

Wow, what a gorgeous piece of work! Congratulations, Roger! Kevin

For early season with lots of leaf canopy still up on the trees, I use #7 1/2 in the right barrel and #6s in the left out of my 16 ga. SKUGG. It is choked .005 right and .011 left and weighs 6 lbs. 2 oz. I have found it to be the ideal grouse gun; easy to carry all day and deadly effective at sensib...

Before that 32-inch 20-gauge lived at Dana's it lived in Cape Girardeau. I first handled it at Pop Headrick's house. Dave, do you recall when (what year) that was? Seems a number of very desirable Foxes 'migrated' from the Headrick's to Dana's collection over time, fortunately for us. Thanks, Kevin

thanks for posting and thanks for taking the time to ID these fine Fox shotguns, Tauber shotgun interesting and looks to be very fine stockwork and finish,Fred Yes Fred - I would love to find out who stocked this gun. The fit and finish is as fine as any British "Best", and the very lovel...
