Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Savage Collectors What a shame

I'd guess from the other pictures I have that it isn't. They did hit the checkering with something that turned it darker, but even Old West Snake Oil will do that to checkering. Lot of case color left on lever. Wear on the receiver matches the barrel.

Now that I look close, I do see slight scratches on the tang where it used to wear a tang sight. So that probably settles it being a RS where somebody removed the Redfield.
