Getting Down to 
DETAILS 
“The Finest Gun 
in the World” 
There are 20 Big and Outstanding 
Reasons why the FOX is Superior to 
any gun made. Following are a few 
of these reasons: 
Made of the best gun materials. 
Most skilled and highest paid work¬ 
manship. 
Acknowledged the best balanced 
American gun. 
Barrel Construction positively scien¬ 
tific. 
The Fox Created Method of boring 
has made the FOX famous. 
Coil mainspring guaranteed forever. 
Simplest and strongest and only 
genuine 3 -piece lock in the world. 
Fastest hammer ever put on a gun. 
Forend holds tight forever—latest 
word in compensating device. 
Triggers are positive — no creep 
whatever. 
Every FOX is guaranteed —and the 
FOX Company stands back of the 
guarantee. 
Ask Your Dealer 
for the other equally important reasons why 
the POX is BEST and tell him to show you the 
gun and the GUARANTEE that is attached to 
it. Don t accept a FOX without the FOX 
PROOF certificate. 
If your dealer cannot accommodate you 
write us giving his name and we will forward 
Catalog and full details.
