Here is an FP Greener in pieces and a Philadelphia Fox in pieces..........there is no engineering parallel that I can see between these two guns.........from the FP's dual sears per hammer, to it's intricate spring system these guns are like day and night......... Fox's have coil hammer springs and a rotary locking bolt........calling them 'close in resemblance' would be a real stretch I.M.O............

It's like the difference between a Spitfire and a Hurricane mate......
