Super Fox

[charlie cleveland]

i would have to win the lottery to buy anything right now...hate you missed that 10 ga for i know what a day late and a doller short feel like....seems to be a whole lot of them here lately....but back to the super fox i believe these guns arenot traded as often as lc smiths...i wonder how many of the super fox were made... charlie

I had been following that 10 bore Lindner Daly that was finally sold for about 3 years-But what the hey-- another less shell/ammo locker and maybe even hunting coat to buy, if I ended up with it--

It helps me- at 70 years and gainin'- to keep the shotgun ammo separate- easy for me- as I have only 12- 12 3" and steel, and 20 gauge- ditto hunting coats or vests--one for when I use the 20 ga. M12, the others for 12 gauge.

Just as you once posted about the 8 ga.-- I sure wish for the days before steel or non-toxic shot became the "law of the land"--as I would love to have a nice std. (not 3.5" mag like the big Ithaca doubles) 2.88" 10 with 32" Full choke barrels- turkeys and geese with Winchester copper Lubaloy no. 4, and the old Remington or CIL Canuck in No. 2 lead--and OO buck for the left tube sometimes--

I have shot a fair number of mallards and Canadas with the steel loads, and they work OK, today's loads are far better than when they first came out-But I still like the older paper hulls and guns made before WW2 the best-

Charlie, my tight patterning 3 1/4" Fox is a high condition Sterlingworth. Some guns should not be sold. My experience tells me that a long chambered Fox is not damaged by shooting steel shot. My friend has been shooting steel from his for years with no visible damage. Odd that you should mention a Krupp Daly ten. I sold a Krupp Daly Diamond Grade ten out of a gun store where I was working. The same fellow who owns the tight shooting Fox also now owns the Krupp Daly ten. He is a good friend who also has a collection of my father's guns, as well as a few more of mine. I am kind of an easy touch, but I am holding on to my old Krupp barrelled Daly eight.
