Default My New Fox

Recently I was fortunate to be able to acquire an exceptional Philly Fox 20 Gauge A Grade with 30" #4 weight barrels, in original condition. The gun weighs 6 Lbs, has great dimensions, is choked Mod/Full, and matches the card exactly. I am proud to be the caretaker of this gun.

That is one lovely gun. Use it with pride.

Love the silver/gray patina of the frame. I have little A 16 ga Philly Fox.
Nice score Steve
