Fox Collectors

I thought it looks more like "Weekend at Bernies"?

Thanks for the closeup of the S/W Dave, nice.

Yeah, I'm positive it's the same one I was ace'd out of on Friday afternoon at the Vintagers in September when Steve and one of his employees had a "come to Jesus' meeting. GGRRRRR..........!!!

I should have snapped a few shots of that 32" XE! Instead you will have to settle for a few smartphone snapshots...

Craig giving his Fox opinion...




At least Craig looks happy

Forgot, I did buy a nice Peters counter top display piece, figure it is from the mid 20's.

Very nice Craig... love those old graphics! Good piece. I haven't heard of anybody going home with a new trophy gun but you're the 2nd fellow who scored nice advertising item(s) from this show that I have heard from.

Et tu, Boyd?

Last I knew Boyd is a Fox CA member but I don't think he's active on this BBS. There's been some behind the scenes talk that the XE Steve has, is the one Boyd had for sale a while back. Actually I shot his 32 XE on the course at the NE SxS at Hidden Hollow; that was 3-4 years ago and I'm a little foggy on it right now, but I've looked at its specs on Steve's site and I'm not sure it came from Boyd.

Boyd said it was his personal gun.

Thanks John, that clinches it. As I wrote I'm kinda foggy on the gun even though I shot some targets with it. Nice gun.

I must be losing it, all these Foxes are running together. I also know that a Fox comrade also looked at it, at another NE SxS maybe two years ago ..... at least I think so ..... ha ha ha.
