Just found this archive of Sporting Life
http://www.la84foundation.org/Sports.../SportingLife/

This issue from 1902 mentions most of the c. 1900 'Big Shots' including A.H. Fox then shooting for Winchester. Anyone heard of a Fulford's Single Trigger for Parker, Smith, and Remington guns?

Drew, if you search the la84foundation site, you will find that Mr. Fulford not only made triggers, but he was quite a competitor.

Drew, are you using the "search" feature when you are looking for a particular name? I have used the search for several different research projects. Good luck.

That would be WAY too easy Bill and I'm searching for 'DSW' for our mutual friend.
Fulford was representing Francotte in 1897
