What was the delivery time on that stunning shotgun, Kevin. After seeing that I may have to take the leap. Bob, They told me one year and that is about what it took, maybe a few weeks less. Well worth the wait.

Kevin:
You certainly made the right choice when you chose that Fox. It's an absolutely stunning gun. Congratulations.
Any chance you'll drag it over to Flourtown-Sandy Run to show it off?

I saw the gun, took the guided tour with Kevin at Hidden Hollow. It is not ugly. I guess I would buy one, even with my own money. The guy who wrote the order has to take a lot of credit for the end result of a project like this.

I had the pleasure of meeting Kevin on Saturday. In fact, I spent pretty much the whole day getting to know him as we shot the 50-bird course twice. His Fox is gorgeous and, of course, the awesome engraving is best admired in the flesh. Kevin has been saying the gun is a bit muzzle light for his taste and he did struggle a bit at first. The squad teased him about not taking a second shot at his missed singles. He said it was a "psychological" thing; he's just hasn't encountered many singles in sporting clay menus and he wasn't wired for a second shot. Once he got with the program, he smashed a few singles with his second barrel out around 35-40 yds. He certainly made steady progress as he got more familiar with it and I don't think you make long shots like that without some "connection" to your gun. I know he's determined to have the butt lightened and I'll sure be interested to hear how that turns out.
Nice meetin' ya, BigKev!

I was pleased with how the gun shot. As Mike said, I started out slow but then picked it up a bit. I don't know if it was because of it being "new" to me or the muzzle lightness. I need to shoot the 20 gauge barrels to see as well. I am going to talk to Galazan and see what they can do to lighten up the butt a bit or I may just leave it alone. A couple of guys mentioned the possibility of adding lead in the FE so they would not mess up the beautiful butt checkering.
