A.H. Fox SW 30" philly...

Post by SXS ohio »

I bought this on Gun Broker just before Christmas....my huntin pardner is getting it for our Kansas hunts. He has been using a 5lb-12oz Philly SW 26" Imp-mod/x-full. His current gun is light and does not swing well for the fast crossers in Kansas. At 6lbs-4oz and 30 inchers this new gun will swing much better! Its original condition with twin ivories, mod and full ...Her is a picture of a crow I gunned with it, the only time I have fired it...worked for me!! I took a real liking to this gun with them long sleek barrels and the twin ivories but its promised to my friend. So I bought the one that Galazan has listed on Guns Intl., Its also hi condition gun with 30" tubes, it only has a single steel bead out front, choked tight and tighter, the way I like em! ...(-: I may use this one for a up-grade I have been wanting to do?? It has not been shipped as yet, Lou is out for shot show and he will take care of the deal when he returns to Connecticut. Anyone who wants to see pictures of the Galazan SW can still find it on GI under Fox shotguns. Thanks all SXS Ohio

Breast out that crow, marinate overnight in Italian dressing, wrap in bacon and cook on a gas grill until the bacon is crispy. Eat the bacon and use the breast for coyote bait!!

Sounds like a good way to ruin bacon to me, Mike.

Crows are fun to shoot. Three of us have killed up to 120 on a morning's shoot in pecan orchards or freshly dug peanut fields. The 30" Sterly really are nice handling guns. Good choice.
