I have no intention of going into any duck marsh so my guns will remain swivel free except for the aformentioned DHE 20.

Rich I have a 30" barreled GH 16 Ga that lettered with sling swivels. Why put sling swivels on such a small gun???

It would be interesting to find out if those guns, ordered with swivels from the factory, were in fact ordered by someone of recent German descent. Just a thought.

I have a copy of the letter somewhere for my DHE. It's more interesting to me that it was ordered with a 15 inch LOP.

I can see swivels on a waterfowl gun but on a small bore upland gun??? My gun has 28 inch bbls, PG, SSBP, and splinter forarm. Nothing massive about this small bore O frame gun.

I have seen orders for swivel guns that went to Mexico.

I wish they would feature the common 12ga low grade guns. I'd have something to enter

Most of the A.H. Fox guns ordered by the big dealer in Havana, Cuba, and the big dealer in Norway were ordered with swivels.

I have also seen swivel Parkers sent to Cuba. I love swivel guns. They sell for so much less money than non swivel guns.
