Got to pick up the finished display for the next Savage gathering. I must say it looks good. A friend's 14 year old son made it.

Very nice, I think the color you have on the wood really complements the guns. I think I recognize the center one, I believe it was at the Pennsylvania Savage Fest and was put up for saie a few years later, I really liked that one.

Thanks!Seems like every year we keep upgrading on how the different rifles are displayed and this is one way that we came up with that we thought would fit best

Yes. We don't know who the original owner was who had it at Savage Fest. When we saw it online for sale we thought it was something we needed to add to our collection.

Agree with the above comments and observations. The color goes very well with the guns. Great looking display!

Very nice display. Well designed! Congrates to the young man who made it. Can I get a Poster like that at the top? Tell me about the bottom rifle...is that K engraving on there? Is it all custom (Checkering) or factory?

Looks great but makes me feel bad. I was just going to throw a bunch of the rifles on the table at the September Savage Fest.

Is it all custom (Checkering) or factory? I think the Crescent Butts ended in the late teens and the K's were 20-30's. My K is 1929.

Here is some of the display we did last year at the Rendezvous in PA. Even with small amount we have we like to make it look good. Pfffft... David had best in show at Savage Fest a few years ago. No one else was even close.

I’m curious to know where you got the Savage table cloths. Do you know if they are available for purchase somewhere? Thanks.
