I have seen this gun in person. The pictures are nice but the gun looks awesome in hand. Brian has the wood finish down to as close to original as I have ever seen. The checkering is flawless on the forend. The owner will be very happy.

Nice job Brian. I have an early A and a BE with the same stunning wood. You did it right.

Beautiful job Brian . Just my personal taste , but I don't like the blackening of the checkering , especially on a Fox gun. Just seems to hide the beauty of a lot of wood .
