You know as I think back I believe 1st Sargent Mosteller told me he had a 20 ga 32” Sterlingworth . His brother got them all after Sarge passed and I know not whether he still has them .

Hi Craig.
Do you have numbers on how many 16ga 32" dlx sterlys were made?

Ejector

Kirby: No idea on either question. The AHFCA never had copies of the Sterlingworth factory records. A 16ga Sterly with ejectors is a rare gun.

Bobby, it's probably not the same gun but a 20b 32" Sterlingworth Ejector was on a table on Thursday morning, first day of the VGC at Hausmann's, and one of the Fox guys scored it at about 10 am after X number of people passed by. I might add, just as I was getting to those tables. Nice gun and oh so very rare in Ejector form. Several of us Fox nuts looked at the gun and blessed it with no reservations. Happy day for the new owner, a good long time friend!

Well, after much anticipation, my letter on my BH arrived today. Ordered by the Tuft Lyons Gun Co. of Los Angeles, CA. So . . . no one famous or even known at all. Oh well.

Keep the faith ! Over time you may find owner number 4 or 7 or 12 may have been someone of note . Heck forty or fifty years from now someone just might say this gun was owned by a great attorney and author from Savanah !

Any idea what kinda numbers there were for the Fox graded guns in 20 gauge 32” ? And 16 gauge 32” ?

Deviated from my buy/sell 2021 plan. Last year I acquired a "mosquito trap machine" and found 2 full cases of mosquito clays on ebay. So I needed a .22 smoothbore, the Remington 510 Rangemaster (single shot) arrived last week. It's in "mint" condition, 4th of July of 2022 we hold a family shoot.
Parents and siblings over 14 will use the .22 smoothbore vs. younger grandchildren and great grandchildren with .410.
Winners will have serious bragging rights.
