Default Restored Super Fox HE

I collect US classic doubles to include a few by Ansley H. Fox. Since Fox never made any 10 gauge guns I acquired the Fox answer to long range fowling. A Fox HE “Super Fox" came available at a good price but it needed a complete restoration. The head of the stock was an oil sponge and there were a few spots on the action that were pitted. Overall though the gun was salvageable.

Brad Bachelder of Grand Rapids Michigan restored this Waterfowling Wonder to the condition fitting a fowl weather veteran of many, many seasons. If only this 1927 Fox could talk!
