Default Fox Sterlingworth 12 ga 32"

Question for those connected to Fox guns

Sterlingworth 32" 12 gauge 1 with ejectors and 1 without, I picked these up recently and I was wondering if these are desirable due to barrel length or if at all unusual? I looked on line and could not find any in the market.

thanks

If your guns are in nice original configuration they are very desirable to own......duck hunters love them! They are not rare but nice ones are hard to find, they got some real hard use. Ejectors also bring the value up and are in demand for the good ones. Very good find indeed! thanks all,... SXS Ohio

The longer the barrels the faster they sell. RB

32" ejector Sterly's are really hard to find. 32" extractor show up on occasion. I've owned four 32" extractor Sterly's in the last 3 years. I had one ejector 32" and put it on the market and it sold asap. All the ones I have owned were choked circa .040 and all weighed about 7 lb 8 ounces. Really nice sporting clays guns for sure.

I had a 32 inch Sterly and it sold fast when I came across a CE 32 incher and a straight grip as an added bonus.

Brian, was that the 32" ejector at the Easter Show? I thought about it, but I already have one.

Same gun, the seller and I had negotiated on that gun as a ritual for 5 years. We both looked forward to it every year.
