[quote=eightbore]A CSMC Fox with a crack in the stock is not worn out from number of rounds fired or from any other reason. Any of the guns mentioned will last for tens of thousands of rounds unless abused.

Well my fox has never been "abused". I am not wealthy enough not to be careful with a gun I could barely afford to order.

I did shoot possibly 100 rounds or so of 1 ounce loads per season(velocity below 1200) over the last 25 years. I ask Tony when I ordered the gun if that was permissible. Other than those loads it has been pretty much 3/4 ounce on the skeet field and just a few sporting clay rounds using 7/8 ounce STS Premiere loads.
