Fox AE 20 Gauge Side-by-Side
#4 WEIGHT BARRELS, 85% FACTORY CASE COLOR
General Specs: Fox, Year 1929, 20 Gauge, 5lb 14oz, SxS
Serial Number: 203106
Many gun lovers reading this ad regularly scour the internet for good deals on Fox shotguns. One thing is for certain; the availability of graded 20ga. Fox shotguns has dwindled to nearly zero. Shooter/collectors have recognized that the Fox 16ga. and 20ga. guns are the most well balanced, lightest weight, best handling guns of all the vintage American doubles. In addition, it is generally known that they have the simplest, most reliable actions as well. This little Philly Fox, sn203106 produced in 1929, is an awesome find. First, they only made about 2400 A Grade 20ga. Fox guns, less than 1200 with ejectors, and very few with #4 weight barrels and weighing 5lbs. 14oz. Due to damage, loss, poor restorations, etc. there are only a few hundred really honest, factory correct, high-condition Fox AE 20ga. guns left in the world, and the guys that own them are not likely to be selling them soon. Just look at the honest condition of this gun! Tons of factory case color, factory original checkering, engraving and screws crisp and clean, natural carry wear on the wood…awesome find! It is in very clean condition, with perfect mechanics, 85% vivid factory case color, excellent bores, and tight as new on breech face and hinge pin. The factory order card shows the gun “as shipped”. THIS IS A “VFI CERTIFIED” GUN, meaning we stripped the forend iron and receiver to the smallest parts, ran it through the Ultrasonic cleaner, inspected all parts for integrity and function, then lubricated and reassembled. VFI CERTIFIED guns carry a 90 day mechanical warranty. We rust blue the barrels to perfection, but the balance of the gun is “as found”. For those that like to see a gun with perfect wood, we can remove all dents and scratches and restore the wood to as new within 4-6 weeks of purchase for an additional $350. The case color and engraving have never been touched and the mechanics are perfect, so nothing else needs to be done. It is hard enough to find a decent AE 20ga. nowadays, let alone with #4 weight barrels weighing well under 6lbs! Don’t let this one escape you. It will continue to gain value as you enjoy its use, so it is a grand investment tool for your hard-earned funds. Thanks for looking!
