Stopped by my grandpa's tonight to give him a couple gallons of tomatoes he was wanting for canning, he traded me a Savage Model 745 for them. Pretty fair trade?
Anybody know anything about the gun? Looks kind of like a Browning A5. This one has a 'ported' poly-choke on it. Had the wife throw 5 clay pigeons for me when we got home, hit all 5 and now can't hear out of my left ear.....pretty loud for sure. Gun is in pretty good shape. Grandpa said he had one identical to it back in the day, this one he traded into about 10 or 15 years ago.
The quick research I did showed most references to the late 40's for manufacture.
