You're a lucky man. That's a rare one for sure. I have a 30" small bore Sterly but no 32's "yet". I'm curious, what does it weigh ? Congrats BTW !!

Randy -
I believe it weighs just over 7 lbs. .37 and .40 min. wall thickness.

Light enough you could carry it for an occasional pheasant and yet enough weight to absorb some recoil. I really like that gun !

As some may know Mark has a soft spot for 32" small bores. The 32" 16ga Sterlingworth is the only one I have ever handled or owned in decades of collecting Fox guns. I know of two others one a Utica era gun and a second Philly gun. Many advanced and long time Fox collectors have never seen or handled one----they are very scarce. Only one 20ga 32" Sterlingworth is known.
I am lucky to be friends with a bunch of gun collecting and hunting brothers that have the same passions as me. Mark was kind enough to sell me a nice Super Fox he picked up in Maine last year so selling him the 32" Sterly was just repaying him for a big favor. Craig |

I am not a Fox collector or shooter, but I too like those long barreled small bores and I appreciate your friendship!

I love long barreled small bores. No Fox's (a 30 inch 20 if that counts) but a couple of Parker" s, two 16's and a 20. Congrats Mark on a nice addition
