Thanks Tom, I find writing about one of my favorite topics fun, but very challenging for me (I hated English in school). My goal for the articles was to raise the awareness of Fox guns, the AHFCA and present statistics derived from the factory records. Part of the enjoyment I get out of the hobby is sharing knowledge and uncovering new information. Since acquisition of a new gun comes at infrequent intervals, writing about them fills a void for me. I appreciate your compliments.
I am not sure when the change was made in the forend style but I believe it was with the engraving change in 1913.
