A couple of fat bottom girls!

Post by Foxnut »

I thought that would get your attention!! Here's some pics of two Sterly Wildfowlers. I've owned one of them about 10 years and the other joined her sister earlier this winter. One has the serial number range of the H (Super Foxes) and the other has the Sterly serial number range of the Wildfowlers. The one with more wear has been on several turkey hunting trips with me over the last couple of years. Enjoy

Those forearms in the first pic are on Sterlingworths?

Mike,
They are. These are from Sterlingworth Wildfowlers which were made from the left over parts of the Super Foxes. All of the Sterlingworth Wildfowlers have the latch forend and ejectors.

In addition to the Fox-Sterlingworth Wildfowls, several of the 12-gauge Fox-Sterlingworth Skeet & Upland Game Guns with beavertail forearms, that I've recorded, have the Deeley lever forearm latchs. I've never seen AE-Grade wood like that lower forearm on a Wildfowl before? Mine looks like this --

Speaking of my Sterlingworth listings, do I have these two on my list? I've got a bunch in the 1341xx range and a few with graded gun serial numbers in the 3528x range.

Craig, thanks for the edit. Thats what I was trying to do last night. As you can see I resized some of the pics to small. Once I figure this out I will repost with better sizing as well. Tom, been very busy lately, yes both of these girls have 32" barrels.

We'll try posting some additional pics using Mike's guidance. Hope this works! The blurriness is from trying to resize the pics in photo bucket.

Are there any marks stamped on the water table or any place else to indicate the guns are Wildfowlers? I understand there is a difference in frame size. Thanks

loggy,
No stampings on the frame/water table. You are correct the frame size on the Sterlingworth Wildfowlers are larger than standard 12 gauge guns. I don't have the exact measurement/difference but the difference is same/similar to the H (Super Fox) frames.

Researcher, you have the serial number and info on one of them. I haven't sent you the info on the newer of the two. Once I get JTC's letter I will get all the specs to you. Brett
