This is one of only four C Grade 12-gauge Foxes with heart-shaped cheek checker panels that were known at the time of that article. I also knew of two in 20-gauge = a total of six original guns. I haven't heard of any more since then.
Steve, I know who owned your gun prior to the dealer where you bought it (I saw it advertised) and also know who he bought it from, some years earlier. Sorry but that info was given to me in confidence and I can't share it here or privately without going back on my word. Maybe the earliest owner mentioned can provide more data if/when he reads this thread.
