Description:
A.H. Fox began making fine shotguns in the very early 1900s, they were indeed some of the nicest—and most reliable—ever made in America. These guns featured basically the same action and barrels as all the upper-crust Fox guns but had only a minimalist border engraved and were fitted with standard-grade walnut stocks. They had less-costly extractors rather than ejectors. Sterlingworths are regarded today by many experts to be the best of all the "economy" American side-by-sides. Featuring a box lock with internal hammers, Fox's action is known for reliability. Action lockup is achieved via a rotary fastener activated by a top lever. When the action is opened, the one-piece extractor is cammed rearward and draws any shotshells in the chambers—whether fired or fresh—about a quarter-inch out. Spent hulls may be plucked out and pocketed—one reason some avid shotgunners actually preferred the extractor over ejectors. Thumbing the top lever to the right unlocks the action and mechanically moves the tang safety to the "Safe" position. As the action is opened, the dual internal hammers are cocked. The Sterlingworth has a trigger for each barrel. The front trigger fires the right barrel; the rear trigger fires the left barrel. Dating 16-gauge a Sterlingworth is problematic, but according to our research, this gun was manufactured in 1922. It has 28-inch barrels, and the pistol grip with the grip cap. The walnut finish is in very good condition. The metal shows normal signs of wear, but are is very good condition. The Sterlingworth has an overall length of 44". The weight comes in at 6.3 lbs. Trigger: Front: 4.88-lb. pull; rear: 5.25-lb. pull. This gun is in overall excellent condition. Includes a factory letter. 16 Gauge
