Re: Grade A fox value

AH Fox receiver bluing

Is the receiver on a 1922 fox supposed to be blued or is it supposed to be to be cased hardened? I just bought one that I think has reblued barrels and receivers. The seller thinks it’s original but it looks too good to be original. I have another fox and the receiver looks case hardened on it. Image

I noticed (forgive me for not knowing the right words) the small ...
