Default Fox kits

Curious if anyone has ordered one of these kits? Might be worth it if you were a somewhat competent gunsmith.

There is a LOT of work there.
You know what i mean if you habe ever fotted barrels, fitted parts and filed/polished frame and such.
Bit its a great option to have if the project calls for it.

I see the email address is jason@foxparts.com...
I wonder if that is Jason Bardon of Pumpkin Mountain?

Personally I wouldn't even attempt something like that, and with the added labor costs to have a gunsmith assemble the kit, it probably wouldn't be worth it. But to the right person/gunsmith I could see it being worthwhile.

Yes, it is Jason Barden.

I have gotten a number of items from him. Great to deal with.

I got a set of New old stock 12g barrels and forend parts to put back together a CE action.

John Hosford has the fox matting machine. He did the rib and roll stamping for me. Turned out great.

That is a nice website. I'm surprised i missed it up to now. Maybe he will have the early style ejector for my SW 12 ga. pin gun I've been looking for.
