PHEW ! !
I never thought my OP would leave us knee deep in BS.
Some folks here would drown if it starts raining, because their noses are so far up in the air.
FWIW, I've owned an original 20ga A.H.Fox A-Grade in 99% original condition w/26" IC/Mod barrels.
No, nothing is an Ansley H. Fox double except another A.H.Fox double.
The older Savage Fox was not an Ansley H. Fox double, either - but as limited as the options were, Savage sold an awful lot of them over the years.
I've owned a few of those too, in every gauge offering.
This newer Fox is what it is - a new American-made non-economy-grade double, with apparent decent workmanship, fit, and finish.
My take is: Love it or leave it - this is America, you pay your money (or not) & take your choice.
