Default Fox 20

Did anyone here get a hands on look at the Fox 20 in lot 77 that sold at the Myers Auction Service sale in East Bend N.C. today? Curious about the condition.

Right in my back yard, and I'm usually so diligent in checking the auction sites. Gary, what was the hammer price?

$3200 or $3300
Invaluable listed the sell at $3200. The auctioneer told me $3300. What are we to make of that?

Really nice gun. I would recommend your smith glass bed the action as there are some issues starting behind the top tang. My smith did that on my Fox and it stopped the problem immediately.
