It had been a while since I threw a few Ben Franklins at a Savage lever gun, so I recently acquired this old guy.

Serial# dates to 1924, should be a model 99C with heavy barrel. I didnt have this model in .303 till now.

Front sight might not be correct?

Here are a few pics:

Looks correct to me. Nice gun!

Don't see many of that model. Both of mine have the 22B front.

Thanks for the input fellas. I was happy to snag this one.

Nice piece! The one I had was a tack driver! I put the first Lightfoot mount on it.

Thats a Nice one! Good Snag!

Nice scratch. I think the itches from that period have some of the nicest lines.

Nice one! I had trouble finding a 99C when I was putting together my collection. David

I've had a number of 1899A SR's and an early 99C or two find their way into my safe, but my 99C's aren't that nice. I'll echo Lightfoot's comment, my d&t gray rat 99C is a tack driver.

Pretty sure i only have one 99c,i do have a couple 99d,s. they are some rare.
