I am Frank. I was/am by no means trying to push you into a membership; just wondering if you are the same fellow who at one time was posting on our site under a different user name. Yes I value "attention to detail" as we called that skill when working and I greatly respect that in others.

OK- I didn't think you were trying to get me to cough up the $30.00 just yet. But I have always posted on the non-members side of the AH Fox Gruppen as Germantown, no other moniker. We shall see what happens if and when I obtain a 12 gauge graded Fox gun. One reason I am distrustful of many of the dealers, including Cabelas' that trade on both the Gun Brokers and Guns International web sites- when you send them a message expressing interest in a particular shotgun or rifle they may have listed for sale--they never reply. It also "gets my goat" when the uninformed dealers list a gun as having ejectors, and the gun clearly does not- and they don't seem to take the time to get educated in these matters, they just list them and hope to find a "sucker" to buy the gun. Not for me, thank you very much.

One thing that may happen, if you get the right one, is that you begin to lose interest in those old Elsies you are so fond of, Francis.

Maybe so, but I doubt it. You'll see Hillary Clinton apologizing for the Benghazi CIA Fubar before any of my "Elsies" will be for sale, and that's a fact, Jack!!!

Germantown,

You may already know this living there in Michigan, but Jay Schachter there in Grand Rapids MI usually has a nice assortment of doubles, including your beloved L. C. Smith and maybe soon to be beloved Fox's, and many others.
I have never purchased or sold a gun to him, so I cannot speak from that experience, but just judging from my conversations with him and looking at his wares, definitely worth checking into. He was at the Las Vegas show this past weekend and had a nice selection. He also has a nice assortment with him when he comes to the Northeast Classic Side by Side Shoot at Hausmann's in PA in June.
Having a gun in hand sure beats looking at one on a web site.

Yes, thank you for that Mr. Jolly. I do know of him, and I have seen some of his fine looking guns or various websites.

Thank you Stan-Not quite yet. In my research and the just returned unopened envelope I sent to the "Whitworth Arms LLC" address in League City, TX--the USPS yellow printed bar stating "Return To Sender= No Such Number- Unable To Forward-- makes me think that there is a slight chance the dealer, a Mr. Russ Gould, may not have a "snail mail" address. I have decided, and also based on the fine input from the "Big 10 Friend"- to pass on dealing with this gentleman, and instead I have put a fine 12 bore (the only gauge guns I ever buy) with the Hunter single selective trigger L.C. Smith on "lay-away" with Mr. Hoyt, owner of Vintage Doubles out in Washington State- a real gentleman and a pleasure to deal with, and an added bones- he does NOT charge the insured shipping costs to guns bought by Honorably Discharged Veterans-- Lock and Load to that!!
