Sterlingworth and B Grade Barrels

Post by kdonner »

Hello,
I am wondering if the barrels from a 1910 B grade Fox can be fit onto a 1913 Sterlingworth action. Are they interchangeable or is some gunsmith work involved? Any advice or comments would be appreciated. Thanks.
Ken

The range of possibilities are endless. From snapping right on to impossible to be fitted and everything in between. This question can only be answered by a qualified double gun smith with the pieces in hand.

The odds of interchangeable barrels on Foxes are fairly low. This is all long before NC-Machining, most parts are filed to fit. I wish you all the luck in the world, but be prepared to bring your check book.
