That's a dandy. Looks like an A or B grade Fox. I think the Fox 16 & 20 guage frame is the nicest of the smaller guage frames.

Nice I could think of a few grouse and pheasants that should be shot with it.

I don't know the grade; I didn't ask but it is a highley engraved receiver. The pix don't give it justice, it has special dimensions, 16 1/4 LOP, cast off, special drop and heel and nose, etc. The owner "shot it in" before I finished it.

Thanks

Thanks for posting - There are not enuff photos of nice SXS shotguns posted.

It shows me how nice my old Ithaca 16 SXS could look with a restock.

Beautiful work!!

That is what I meant when I said I do more than just the 98 2-position safeties.
