About the 
barrels of 
the 
“The Finest Gun in the World” 
^HE usual charge from a gun has 
a bursting force of from 50,000 
to 65,000 pounds to the square 
inch. 
With this force within a few inches 
of his head a man should come pretty 
near knowing that his barrels are right. 
The FOX barrels are made to test 
from 90,000 to 110,000 pounds to the 
square inch. This shows that the 
FOX is safe. 
The FOX barrel construction is pos¬ 
itively scientific. It is a special grade 
of the highest quality of Fluid Steels, 
specially bored, and tested with a 
tremendous overcharge equal to the 
test required by the European Govern¬ 
ment Proof Houses. 
Because of the small number of 
mechanical parts in the action the 
frame of the FOX is not cut away so 
much as the average gun, therefore 
the FOX has frame strength where it 
is scientifically needed. This, with 
barrels of scientifically distributed 
weight, giving strength and balance, 
make it “the perfect handling gun.” 
Ask Your Dealer To 
Show You The Fox 
Handle it. Examine it closely. 
Read the Guarantee and Certificate cf 
Test attached to each gun. Know that 
FOX PROOF means safe and sound 
—and that it insures the gun doing in 
your hands just what it has done in 
the hands of our inspectors. 
If your dealer cannot accommodate 
you write us, giving his name, and we 
will forward catalog and full informa¬ 
tion.
