The Fox guns introduced the "2nd generation engraving" around 1914. The early A grades are quite plain. A 1928 gun should have the newer style of engraving. Brad |

Gary, do you have the serial number? If you do, this site with the Fox serial number dates should confirm whether it is graded or a Sterlingworth.
http://www.doublegunshop.com/dgsnos1.htm I have an AE 20, 1919 production if I remember correctly, with 28" barrels. It is a wonderful little double. Good luck on the auction. |

They provided the ser# as 282296 this morning.
From the info provided this does not improve my situation. I think I will have to go take a look. Thanks to all that provided information. |

If that is the correct serial number the gun the serial number list on Double Gunshop lists it as is a very late (Post 1940) production Sterlingworth. A 20 gauge Fox in any grade with 32 inch barrels is quite uncommon. I know of only one in my area and the family is not about to part with it.

Gary, if you give me the auction info I will be sure to check the Fox out for you. Just to make sure the gun and seller are on the up and up.
