Description:
For your consideration is a circa 1920 A. H. Fox Philadelphia built Sterlingworth 20 ga. The gun has a beautiful stock and forearm. These were professionally made and finished beautifully. The stock has an orange Noshoc pad. Checkering is fresh with a dent in the forearm checkering as shown in pictures. The stock has approximately a 1/4" cast ON for a left-hand shooter. The receiver is worn to gray with the only color showing inside the trigger guard. Dual triggers in position for a right-handed gun. The barrels have been professionally stripped (I have receipt for $1000 for this), resoldered and reblued using a hot blue process (not rust blued). The barrel flat is stamped "SECOND" which based on my research indicates that it was likely sold as a second to an employee of the factory. The chokes have been opened to IC and modified. Bores measure .616" Right and .618" Left 9" from the breech. Bores are mirror bright. 2 1/2" Chambers with extractors. Very light weight at 5lbs 15 oz's. Would make an excellent field gun you can carry all day.
