I'm bck, typed a big reply Boltman after you posted the link, darn thing just disappeared. As did my reply here a few minutes ago. Don't know whats wrong, some fine fire arms i that auction. Anyone want to take a guess on the value of the marlin pump in 250?

darn shame you missed that rifle after waiting all that time, is is the one in your last picture? Looks to be an all metal .

Gene was that link to sav 99, a pump action design on a sav 99? Can't get it to open for me.

Surprised this thread generated so much interest, it has certainly been enjoyable for me and a clearly a lot of others
