Tough question on a C grade
Posted: Sun Apr 26, 2009 8:22 pm
I know - no pictures, so this is unfair, but, I'm not a Fox guy ,and have number of questions:
Came across a C grade 12 gauge, two barrel set (SN2410) - 26" and 30". 26 " barrels appear to have been added later - different extractor configuration and may never been shot. BT forearm. All numbers match
30 " barrels may have been redone many years ago - splinter forearm. Case colors are nice - perhaps too nice for a 90 year old gun. 14 1/2 in pull to a Pachmyer White line pad. Round pistol grip. Nice wood, but pores aren't fully filled. Would that be typical for a C grade? Didn't get to measure drop, but not too bad.
Any estimates on its value?
Would a gun of that vintage have had short chambers?
Thanks.
