Default Fox CE/

Is there fox info available like there is Parker?
I own a Philly fox that's nicely engraved I think it is a CE.. Would like to know when it was made and if it is a CE.
It has some problems,ejectors out of time,top lever will not stay to right,barrels probably cut to 28". serial #11097 if anyone could tell me anything about this Fox I would appreciate it. I was going to have it restored but arthritis now precludes me from using two triggers Thanks,Herb

yes- http://www.foxcollectors.com/My%20Fo...1a667f37a9c023

there are records for most graded guns

if you join you are entitled to a free card look up per year
normally you can expect the card to contain most (not always all) of the basic specs -grade, barrel length, stock configuration along with any special requests and where it was shipped - a CE could have an interesting card

Savage Arms does a research letter- there are some that think the quality had declined since the previous historian retired - the one additional piece of information you may get (if you ask for it) with a letter is the pellet counts from the test patterns - that and any occasional additional notes on the back of the card which the Fox group's copies do not have that
