Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Savage Collectors Sears 99s!

Just got a letter back on a 99G in 250-3000. It was shipped to Sears on Oct 9, 1929.

Stock market crashed 19 days later on Oct 28, 1929 - where it dropped 13% in one day. The slide continued for almost 3 years until summer of 1932, when it had dropped almost 90% from the peak.




Oh, I'd love to hear the stories this gun could tell. Mailed direct to somebody through the mail, no messing with FFL's or background checks.

It's not a good picture, but it's survived the last 93 years in good shape.
