Mike, the gun you're asking about is a Trap Grade 20ga.....it is the one pictured in the McIntosh book. It went to the 1932 Grand American Handicap and then was "returned to the office". Incidently, the one below it is an SPR grade 16ga. Both guns wear original ventilated ribs.

Tom, Craig,
Way to show case the fine Fox gun! I am sooooo dissapointed that I didn't make it down from Michigan. To much going on and to much travel for work. I wanted to bring my A Grade Cut-A-Way down. Tom, I think I know that feller that had the 2 barrel C Grade and SPE's!!! It was that gentlemen from N.W. Ohio. Hopefully I will be able to talk him out of those guns one of these days so they can go to Michigan! Regards - Brett
Regards - Foxnut

Brett,

I was looking for you and was disappointed when I heard that you weren't going to make it. It was pretty neat that "that fella" brought all those SP(E)s, between his and mine there hasnt been that many SP grade guns in the same building since the Fox/Savage warehouse in the '30s!!!! Stay in touch.

We want to hear about the Becker gun. Great display. As a long time member of OGCA, and life member of AHFCA, I should have been there.

Yes Tom, Linda and I and my little Wirehair will be at Hidden Hollow. Yes, Dave, the famous trek into pigeon country. Got a free auction catalog and purchased a meatloaf lunch. Visited Cabela's. Nothing else to report.
