Back to that rifle, it just does not have the eye appeal to me that the very early Enoch Tue engraved guns do, I like the fine lower relief lines of his engraving over almost all of the work of later engravers. I also like the less exaggerated curves of the wood on very early guns. Even the Dodge rifle, which has to be considered in any discussion on the 'fanciest Savage ever' seemed way to much to me -
Dodge rifles (PS I do't know how to take Arthur Savage's skipping out on rent owed to a church, first time I ever heard of a church suing anyone for money, they usually are considered charitable institutions.)
