J Model I just found

Post by Blue Grouse »

I thought I would post some pictures of the J Model single barrel trap that I was lucky enough to find recently. It has a 30" barrel and a 14-1/4" pull to a recoil pad that looks like it is original.

From what I found out about the serial number is this gun is 100 years old. I used to have J model 0008 but sold it several years ago and I've been wanting to replace it since.

Well, you did a fine job of replacing it, BG. What condition! Amazing that a gun would survive a century in that fine a state.

Congratulations on a nice looking J. Please try to attend the Northeast SxS event in June and try your hand at the Letterman SBT event.

The high condition of many Fox singles is interesting to say the least.
