I would bet that Dave had some "Fox" discussions with Mr. Strebe on one of his visits. The last I visited Strebe, he volunteered that he was down to 75 Foxes and 40 Parkers. When he purchased the remnants of Fox production, the stock was delivered to Southeast Washington in tractor trailer rigs. My little English Pointer puppy was whining in the truck. Mrs. Strebe insisted I bring him into the store. He immediately peed on the floor and Mrs. Strebe was quick with sponge and water bucket. They were great people. Too bad Mike McIntosh didn't have much to say about them in his book. Apparently, he didn't know them past the gun that Savage built for Norman.
