I have a 99-A purchased from the original owners widow that included the hang tag and sale receipt dated 10-05-1973. Always wondered what date it was manufactured. You're Welcome At My Fire Anytime

From 1976 to the end of production they shared the 22" barrel with the other models. You did well at that price. David wyo1895 With Savage never say never.
