Noticed no Foxes?

I have noticed there are little or no 20ga Fox Sterlingworths on Guns International and Guns America? Have they all been bought up?

They are held tight to the vest and only come out for the "right price".

They are all getting used up in custom guns and upgrade fakes!

Think folks have nailed it. The real good ones are sitting in one's collections or being sold for pretty crazy prices. There's an ejector Sterly 20 Gauge on one of the auction sites right now that will probably at some point sell for the asking price. The mostly tired ones are ending up as custom guns. I recently bought a 20 gauge 28" Philly Sterly with a home made (shop class project most likely) stock to use on a TBD project, because the price was right and I knew if I never did the project I wasn't out much.
