Fox Collectors

Well I’ve had a gunsmith look at this. He assured me that the barrel was not cut. The cylinders are to the spec it was purchased cylinder and modified. The paperwork I received from the arms historian stated it was a custom made gun. Did Roe Clark mention the barrel length in his letter? That would...

Hi Harry,

As Jeff said, not sure about 3 inch chambers on the HE20. Beavertail fore end doesn't sound like factory.

Yes, by all means, get a copy of the factory card for that gun.

Keep us posted.

Hi John,

Can't you use lead for pheasants out your way? If so, RST should have those?

If you would like to see much better pictures and some other very interesting tidbits on those two Fox SPECIALS pictured above, see two of Tom Kidd's Double Gun Journal articles on them: For the 12 Gauge SPECIAL, Ser. No. 22323 see "For Exposition" in Volume 11, Issue 2 - Summer of 2000 ed...

I don't own them anymore but here are two that were there plus a picture of the Fox Expo in case anyone is curious what it looked like. First picture: Fox SPECIAL 12 gauge with serial number 22323 (* See below.) and Second picture: a 16 gauge Fox SPECIAL with serial number 300476 and Third picture: ...

I had a question about the Baby Whoop and the Big Whoop but you very nicely explained it in your thread specific to those. Thanks Daryl.

Less than a week to go. Yippee!

Good comments and everyone is correct. I spoke with Ernie Tuesday morning. The AHFCA will be renting an additional table (as we did last year) so that members can sell guns. Ernie was happy last year and he sounded happy again this year. See you all there. Jeff - can non Fox items be sold on that t...

Thanks for posting that, Jeff. And a better pair cannot be found to attend to activities at the Fox booth.

Question: the additional table for members to sell their guns will be for Fox guns only? Or, other, non Fox guns? Just curious.

Thanks, and eagerly looking forward to next week.

Yeah, Dave. Like you used to do.

I sent a note to Jim DeMunck telling him about this XE12 that he helped upgrade from a Sterlingworth to a very nicely done XE. He sent me a note back and had this to say about the gun: "I remember that one. I will look through my patterns and see if I have that one in there. I may have just use...

You have good taste Brett.

What could be nicer? Gorgeous!

I have an early 12 gauge Fox that has the push rod removed so that it did not push the safety slide back to the SAFE position when the opening lever was pushed to the right to open the action and drop the barrels. The safety slide stayed in the forward/front shooting position And the safety slide it...

Very impressive. Mollie should do well in Florida.

The crew comes through! Looks like it was worth the trip. Is the limit on Canadas 3 out in that flyway? Any luck with the ducks? We were shooting Lessors and the limit is 5. As you know the temperaures in the west have been way above normal, not the best set up for waterfowl. We did ok with the gee...
