I have a Fox Sterlingworth 12ga (s/n 179758) that need's some work done on the safety. This gun was given to me by my father.

Does anyone know of a good gunsmith in the Cincinnati area that they would trust with a wonderful old gun?

Just trying to get it fixed up prior to giving it to my son.

Thanks for any assistance!

Jim

Jim,

Welcome to the Fox Collector site.

Can't do much better than having your Fox given to you by your father and then passing it on to your son.

Check the guns serial number tho. 179758 would not be a 12 gauge Sterlingworth number. Maybe 129758?
