Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
First produced in 1940 by Savage Arms Company (Savage Arms purchased A.H. Fox Co. in 1929) as an upscale version of the Stevens Model 311, the Fox Model B would be a strong seller for Savage until its discontinuation in 1986. The Fox Model B was offered in 12, 16, 20, & .410 bores with standard barrel lengths of 30, 28, & 26 inches in 12-gauge and 28 & 26-inch barrels for the 16 and 20-gauge models and the occasional 24-inch barrel. All .410-bore guns were equipped with 26-inch barrels.
The Fox Model B shotguns sported a simplified version of the Anson & Deely type of box lock with a single under bolt accessed by a Scott spindle top lever. The hammer and sears were powered by coil springs, which made for a hunk of gun but one that would rarely see the inside of a repair shop. It also features a receiver engraved with patterns on both sides and on the bottom of the receiver.
The Model B had “select” American black walnut forends and stocks with a gloss finish. A through bolt retains the stock, and the forend is held by a spring tension latch that is self-adjusting and will not loosen. Stocks were pistol grip type with a fluted comb and a corrugated black plastic butt plate. Guns from the mid 50’s on had a more ergonomic pistol grip and donned a black plastic grip cap.
To begin with, the forend style was a large version of the splinter style forend but was eventually changed to a beavertail forend. Simple hand-cut checkering embellished the stock until the mid-60s, when the pattern was changed to impressed checkering using a fancier-looking pattern. The Model B had raised solid ribs for the first twenty years of manufacture, later switching to a ventilated rib.
Return Policy:
We gladly offer a 3 day unfired inspection policy from the time that the firearm is delivered to your FFL. Refunds are available for all qualifying orders.
