Fox Collectors
The Fox Collectors forum was founded in 2006 to stimulate interest in the history and production of Fox shotguns. We believe you will enjoy our forum and learn more about the rich history of Fox shotguns.
Had a chance to get out today and shoot a round of sporting clays with fellow Fox fan Jeff Stegmeier. We were both shooting Fox XE 12 gauges. Jeff’s is a SN 22XXX 30” straight stocked gun and mine is a SN 25XXX 32” SRPG gun.
Interesting to note that Jeff’s gun is an earlier deeply engraved gun with the head down fox on the floor plate and mine is a later lighter engraved engraved heads up fox gun with frame rebates on top and bottom. Fun to compare guns over periods of time as the engraving and features changed.
If I remember correctly Jeff said the card specified that checkering pattern. I’m sure he’ll chime in.
I should also mention that my gun was originally ordered with 32” F/F barrels. It still has 32” barrels but they are Chicopee Falls era #3 weight barrels. They are void of the breech end X engraved wedges. The rib extension is engraved with the Oak Leaf motif to align with the frame. Would love to know how/what happened to original barrels and when it made its way back to Savage for the new barrels. One can only imagine!!
