Kevin,
I woundn't fret about "missing" out on a overpriced restocked H&H. Arent you getting a brand new, built for you, high grade CSMC A.H. Fox smallbore with another set of barrels?? Jesus man, relax!!! I think you're gonna be just fine brother!

I doubt Ansley would look at a CSMC Fox and claim it to be a "reproduction". He'd probably be very proud that his design is still being made today at an very high level, a level that rivals what he himself could've made. In all honsesty he'd probably be extremely jealous to tell you the truth. When it comes to new production custom guns...those CSMC Fox's are a great bargain. You did well and I think you're gonna be very happy with the final product.
