Got a call from a local guy who needed help identifying his Fox. Check the size of this tree.

What my photo doesn't show is that the Deeley latch was removed and a push button release added. Bizarre doesn't begin to describe it. This was a second generation single trigger AE grade with the initials "W. St.C. WILSON" engraved on the trigger guard. Unfortunately the serial number on the frame did not match serial number on the barrels/forend iron/trigger guard. And the frame appeared to have been blued at some time. But it was owned by his great-grandfather and the collector value was irrelevant.
