Last fall I found a 2nd gen A grade 12 gauge that needed some TLC. She had languished on a rack for several months with no takers; stock was cut way too short for most anyone at 13â€

Very nice, Silvers. Another great project. Are the feathers in the last photo from your first shot?

Nice job Silvers but you need to change your name to FoxDoc!

Thanks guys for your comments. While I appreciate collector grade Foxes and own a few of them, I really like to bring back good ones that just need a little help. Frank

For no special effort on the stock, I think you did very well Frank. Gives me some inspiration to try it on one of those short stocks that I've passed up in the past.

A couple of gents have asked for more pics of the stock, wood finish and the barrel extension to show how its slot looks after the TIG weld work. Frank

Silvers I recall that gun sitting for quite some time and thinking to myself "Why isn't Silvers all over that ole 32" gun? I thought that sure would be a good canidate for a restock. I see you were "all over it". The extension came out excellent and the checkerer kept the same flat top checkering that is proper to a factory A grade. I cant wait to see her in person at the NE SXS. I bet she will crush those Bo Whoop targets. I think Fox-admin says it best, We are going to have to start calling you the Fox Doc !!!! Paul
