I just contacted Philip Schrier, the National Firearms Museum curator and field editor for the "American Rifleman". He wants me to send a copy of my book for a review in the "Rifleman" as soon as it's available.
Haven't heard anything from the publisher for a month or so. They told me there would be long gaps during the process when I wouldn't hear from them so I guess no news is good news. David

Would you also believe they threatened to send out the hit squad if I let anyone see that cover before they were ready?

Thanks Rory. I'm not computer savvy enough to do that. I've got to get some business cards made up with that cover photo. David

Was surprised when I seen that about a week ago on Amazon. Heck that cover just makes me want to buy more Savage 1899/99's. Guess I can now blame my enhanced addiction on David now. GW

I believe that once the book is out and readily available more and more firearm enthusiasts will appreciate the variations available in the Savage line of lever actions. There will be increased competition for any Savage which hits the market and prices will jump.

If I buy one on Amazon, will it be signed?
I'd like a signed copy if possible.

Greg, that's some deal between Schiffer and Amazon that I'm not involved with. I'll of course sign the ones I mail out or sell at gun shows and any copies that someone buys somewhere else and bring to me. The books in the 500 will be numbered 1, 2, 3, etc. to 500 out of 500 with a note that they were in the first 500 I signed. Any others will just be signed without any numbers.
Amazon offers free shipping. I have to pay shipping on the 500 books I'm getting so will charge the $5.00 for books that I mail out. Priority mail is $5.95 but I rounded the shipped price off to $65.00. The ones at the shows will be $59.99.
I've got you on my list for a signed copy.
Prepay is appreciated and will be the first books I send out.
David

For you new guys I'm also keeping a list of people who are interested in the book but haven't prepaid. PM me with your email address and real name. For anyone who wants to prepay send me a check or money order to David Royal, P.O. Box 1271, Pinedale, Wy., 82941 or use paypal to wyomingsavage1895  gmail.com. For paypal say it's a friends and family gift so I don't have to pay their fees. Thanks, David

I talked to the cute post mistress a few months ago and she seemed to think priority mail was best. This gives me another excuse to talk to her.
