If Savage could contract with Miroku to make new Savage 1899s, would you buy them?
I was recently offered a deal on a Winchester 1892 take-down trapper style carbine, one of the Davidson's specials in 44-40, and was impressed by how well it was made, fit and finish wise. It wasn't a rifle that I was interested in, but I was thinking that a Miroku 1899 250-3000 rifle would be a nice to have if the price was under $1,200.
What about a run of 1899CD's in 38-55, 25-35, 32-40, 30-30? I doubt many of us would buy one, but the less dedicated collector might toss out $1500-$1800 for one to display.
