Fox Collectors

The duck scene was found on early Model 37 Dollar Grades, I don’t recall ever seeing it on an Ithaca double. And of course the mermaid was on the Sousa Grade guns. This particular trigger guard with the mermaid is actually not of the same serial number. Makes me wonder if Bill pulled it out of his d...

And a Model 37R 20 gauge

a bit more of Bill McGraw’s work, Ithaca’s longest tenured engraver. These 2 guns were Bill’s personal guns which he never completed.

I have not encountered an NID with McGraw’s signature, only Knick Single Barrel Trap models. Where I find the signature most frequently is on the left side of the frame in the lower right corner in the floral engraving as pictured. While on the rare side, I’ve seen it on maybe 8 - 10 Knick 4E & ...

Not much news on how the Southern ''WAS', so lets help make the ''North East'' Shoot at Hausmann's Hidden Hollow the Best Shoot in the North East this year. Harry, Only my opinion so take it for what it is worth, the 2026 Southern event was one of the best I attended in the last 10 years. I came ho...

Nice Finds,

that embosser stamp tool is really special, I would think that is some kinda rare.

May I be your gun bearer??

That is a scarce one.

No mermaid on the trigger guard, have you observed that on any other Ithaca Sousa grades Dave?

Looks like you guys had a great time Milt,

Thanks for posting the picture, I bet I know who was shooting the Doumelin

The RAYBAR counter display

Frank, That is a nice 4E Knick, original Sunburst pad with aluminum spacer. The RayBar sight on a Knick is a little too gawdy for me, on a model 37, Yes. I have a few late Knick's with the RayBar sight and I just can't warm up to it, but I also cannot bring myself to remove them :? One of the 2 last...

That’s a pretty fancy recipe Tom. Normally, when I cook an entire duck, I put it in a pan and put it in the oven for 50-60 minutes depending on size. Then, make a little duck gravy and enjoy. I guess I’m a simple guy. I've seen you eat Jeff. You like the good stuff. PS. I've used this on Woodcock q...

Nice picture Cory,

Great looking Fox there,

I like the threshing machine in the background, did you wonder close enough to see the make of the machine? Possibly a Frick??

I’m guessing someone will be along with a newer iPhone that can help you guys, I have never tried posting from my iPhone but use my iPad to put pictures on this site. File being too large, I’m not sure that I recall seeing that one. Maybe you’re newer phones taking pictures with more detail creating...

It’s Amazing,

You guys just look better with age
