James,
I have the “A” model in 12ga. Think of it as an RBL without the round frame. IMO it has nothing to do with Fox guns. That said, it’s a well balanced, well made gun. I’ve shot lots of birds with it over 4-5 years and it’s been reliable. The “engraving” detracts from its appearance, to my eye, but it’s minimal on the “A” model.
I had the shiny stuff removed from the wood and the comb lowered, a pad installed. It fits well enough now, is good looking, will digest whatever I stuff in it. If it’s lost by the airline I wouldn’t be happy but it wouldn’t be the end of the world.
One odd thing is that the barrels are separated a little more than normal. I checked POI and regulation of pattern and they are both spot on.
When I bought mine they listed for $5k. An add on GI had mine advertised for $4.5k as I recall with the “make an offer” option. I offered $2,750 and they accepted. I’m happy with it at that price.
