Looking for an approximate value for an old 20 gauge Fox Sterlingworth made by Fox Gun Co. Philadelphia,PA.Thanks,JoanI just found out this is a 16 gauge and not a 20 gauge as I had thought.[This message has been edited by jd1 (edited 02-07-2002).]

  Condition is a critical factor on the value of any collectable firearm and you do not indicate condition. 20 guage will be worth about 50% above other bores. Yours could run between about $400 and $2000 depending upon condition and how badly someone wants it. If you are going to sell it should be appraised by a knowledgable dealer (not a buyer) who can actually handle the gun. For 16 guage reduce the above values by about 50%.[This message has been edited by He Dog (edited 02-08-2002).]

  That is not true about the 16 gauge and reducing the value by 50 percent.
  
  It depends on several factors..... Stock, english, pistol grip, semi pistol. barrel type krupp or chrome, length of barrels, trigger type. frame size, If the gun has the fox prof stamp. Barrel weight 1-4 4 being the lightest.
  
  But when it is apples for apples it's about 10 percent less for the 16.
  
  A philly fox that is in 80 + percent in any grade is a rare find no matter what grade or gauge..........................
  
  So if anyone has one in 80 better and i'll take it. Just e-mail me.
