Default A.H. Fox A grade 16 STORMY SEAS

I was up early on Thursday 4:30 A.M. checking my usual web sights for SXS shotguns. My name is Kenny I have issues....I will never have any cash...)-: My gun habit see's to that! Anyway I was the first buyer to commit and bought this one, I could not help myself as I was mesmerized by the wood! I'm going to name this gun stormy seas from the figure in the wood. The gun is a Philly A grade 16, 28" gun choked skeet 1 and skeet 2, 6lbs. Original English/splinter, DT 14 5/8 x 1 1/2 x 2 The workmanship looks outstanding in the pictures. I will not see the gun in person till I return form the U.P. grouse hunting. SXS ohio

I also saw that gun the first day it appeared. You got it before I finished rolling up the change in my piggy bank. All I could say when it disappeared from the website was ( *^$%#@(*& ), but at least now my Parker's won't be envious.

Kenny,

You are an addict, pure and simple!

BTW, how is that Gordon Setter of yours doing in the UP?

That is a beatuiful gun Kenny. That was a lucky find, especially with that wood and it looks like the stocker did as great job too.

Default U.P. Hunt

MOBIRD...we had a great time, Ruby did get into a porky..)-: her moth is swollen today and will go to the vet ASAP I now have the gun Fox in hand. Its a keeper but may need the barrels reworked later on to make it perfect. cyl/mod should be a grouse getter. Fits me pretty well but shooting it will tell! Killed my U.P. birds with my VH-16 SXS Ohio
