A few years ago, Savage sent all their records, including the A.H. Fox production cards to the McCracken Research Library at the Buffalo Bill Center of the West in Cody, Wyoming. You can get a letter on your Sterlingworth from them --

Be advised that the Sterlingworth was a "made for stock" item built to "standard" specifications so there usually is not much information on the cards --

Up to you to decide if that limited amount of information is worth the price of a letter to you.

PS: STANDARD means it had 30-inch barrels.

FIELD = 28"
Brush = 26"
TRAP = 32"
