This looks like a Philadelphia Arms Co gun as described in the first post. PAC was a predecessor to the A H Fox Gun Co. It's just my opinion but any Fox with 32-inch barrels, in good shape, is easily worth that kind of money.

Frank is correct. It is a PAC gun and, if in reasonable condition, is worth $450. I have a B grade PAC gun, s/n 1087, with 32" tubes, straight grip and was mentioned in Macintosh's book. A really nice gun. I'm sure Dave N. will chime in as he has been collecting s/n's on these guns for years.

Here is the link to the Philadelphia Arms Co. info on the A.H. Fox Collectors Association, Inc. site --

http://www.foxcollectors.com/ah_fox/...phia_arms.html





My article on Philadelphia Arms Co. was in The Double Gun Journal, Volume Thirteen, Issue 4. And, another in the AHFCA Newsletter Volume Three, Issue 2, Fall 2010. Recently the notice of the Sheriff's sale of Philadelphia Arms Co. brought some strong bidding on ebay.
