Fox Collectors

Magnificent
Enjoyed seeing that 2nd one.
Shouldn't a pasture like that have horse's in it ?

Still haven't managed to get all 3 out.
Did get my youngest out with it though.
He was pulverizing the targets.
Pretty sure when the time comes he'll lay claim to it.

Time wasn't on my side.
I did get to try it though.
Hit 5 of 6 clays.

Checked the ckoke today right is modified.
The left full on my guage wouldn't go...not even close.
Turkey tight....or let that pheasant get out a ways.

Thank you guys
Me and the boys plan to try it this weekend.
Hopefully with some clays.

It's my 3rd Fox now.....a lot for me.
The other two are an XE and a Special
The special is my favorite....wish Id found it 40 years ago.

I think I'll bring all 3 out.

I Think it's an A grade
It is 12 gauge with 28" barrels.

I do like the chunk of wood

Will thanks for your help and beautiful gun.
It does measure 30" to there.
Quite a relief I didn't know how to measure properly.
I was looking today for a 3 stamp and couldn't find one.

The ship out pile keeps growing.
Have some other "stuff" that may as well go also.
I've been a good caretaker long enough and someone
Could definitely display it better than my closet.
The excelsior, redhead, and ranger I'll probably miss the most.

Today was it's big day.
Broke it down and lubed it up. Put three field loads in.
Bang shuck bang shuck bang shuck
Yes still in time.

Then 1 bottle center and one your a turkeys head.
I was happy with the results

David you are such a wealth of knowledge....just incredible.
Looking at what you posted I'm thinking it's a #3 trap ?
I'm mainly going by the checkering style though.
The serial is U 66,xxx so a relatively early gun ?

I did also notice all even length barrels in the flyers/catalogs.

By my limited knowledge I think that's what they were simply called.
This is a trap one with a 29" barrel and with nice wood it called to me.

Hi Will
I've picked out some that I thought may be worth trying.
I did use wards once with a bunch of accumulated 22's mainly and was happy with the results.

Just as a follow up
I have this German 16 gauge Ulrich and an old Cresent peerless 20 gauge.
Took a very ratty looking box of 16 Rangers, the shells looked great though, and the worst sur shot 20 gauge box.

Everything worked great.

Only other 2 things literature wise I thought you could possibly use were these
This is one I'm curious about having Selby on it.
