Is the double a Philadelphia Arms Fox? Is it a C-Grade?

Here are few more pictures of the D Grade Philly Arms Co... Enjoy.

Easy to see why Ansley Fox had Patent infringement issues with the PAC guns. Or is that just an old unsubstantiated rumor?

I would like to think this Fox was in his hands for a little while.

Dave 3o" barrels that are both about as full as full can be. I had the ivory bead replaced that was broken with a period original. Other than that small detail, she's mechanically great and original, just like she left Philadelphia.

Jared, that is a great gun and certainly one to be proud of.

It looks like Anschutz wasn't the only engraver who scratched out anatomically correct male dogs. And all along we thought Parker had the corner on that...
