Case Hardened Savage Fox Model B Side-By-Side Shotgun 20 Gauge with 28 Inch Barrels
Description
This Savage Fox Model B is a side-by-side break-action shotgun chambered in 20 gauge for 2-3/4 inch shells. The firearm is equipped with 28-inch blued steel barrels featuring a ventilated rib and a single bead front sight. The receiver displays a vibrant case-hardened finish with decorative scroll engraving on the side panels and a distinctive engraved fox head surrounded by a foliate wreath on the underside. The walnut furniture includes a checkered pistol-grip buttstock and a matching beavertail forend. The stock has been modified with the addition of a black ventilated rubber Pachmayr White Line recoil pad. Key markings include the left barrel stamped FOX SAVAGE ARMS CORPORATION / WESTFIELD, MASS. U.S.A. MODEL B and the right barrel marked PROOF TESTED 20 GAUGE / — 2 3/4 INCH CHAMBER —. The underside of the receiver and the barrel flats both bear the stamped characters J D followed by two circled A symbols, and a circular 17N mark is located on the upper tang. The shotgun features a single gold-colored trigger and a tang-mounted safety. Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.
Condition report:
The barrels retain a high percentage of their original blued finish with minor thinning and scattered light handling marks. The receiver\'s case coloring remains strong and vibrant with only light surface wear consistent with field use. The walnut stock and forend are in good condition overall, showing several vertical scratches on the right side of the buttstock and typical small dings from handling. The recoil pad is an aftermarket addition and appears well-fitted. The bores are bright, and the action appears to function correctly, though we have not function-tested this firearm.
