Description:
Fox A Grade 16 Gauge SxS Shotgun
ORIGINAL W/ CONDITION, 28", 55% CASE COLOR

General Specs: Fox, Year 1928, 16 Gauge, 6lb 3oz, Side-by-Side
Serial Number: 302745

The demand for small bore Fox guns has never been more intense.  Try and find an unmolested Fox A Grade or better 16 or 20 and you will see few that aren't buggered up in one way or another.  The Fox 16ga., built on a 20ga. frame, has earned it the reputation as being the finest of all American doubles, and this gun is no exception.  With the lightweight 28" number 3 weight barrels it weighs in at 6lbs 2oz. and balances perfectly between the hands.  This is what most upland shooters consider to be the perfect weight; not too light with enough weight for a smooth swing, but an easy carry for a long day afield.  We have included a copy of the factory order card and you will see this gun has not been altered from its original configuration.  The only change since new is that we raised the comb 2 3/4" drop at heel for better shooting dimensions.  Made in 1928, sn302745 has survived in remarkable condition and is the perfect upland gun that will appreciate in value as you enjoy its use.  THIS IS A "VFI CERTIFIED GUN" meaning our gunsmith disassembled the action to its smallest parts, cleaned all in our ultrasonic cleaner, inspected all of the parts for integrity, lubricated and assemble all.  So the gun is like new inside and carries a 90 day mechanical warranty, unheard of in the used gun market!  This is a $225 service.  RST Shotshells makes an incredible spreader load for your close in needs, or have us open the chokes to your stated specs within 2 weeks of purchase.  The LM/F chokes it shipped with are perfect for western upland game and sporting clays (with a pocket full of spreaders), or late season grouse.  What a great find at a very reasonable price.  The few other Fox A Grade 16's we see advertised have very short LOP AND A PAD, or are in rough shape.  This gun is ready to go!  Thanks for looking.
