I'm asking $600 shipped in the CONUS payment by USPS MONEY ORDER. I'm not a FFL so please make sure your FFL is cool with that and I will send a copy of my DL with the rifle.

Don't forget that the West was still there and cars were just a dream for the most part while the SRC's were being sold. Cowboys and ranchers were still living on their horses a good majority of the time, there was good extra money to be made trapping and hunting, and a short carbine fit the bill. “The Savage 99 Pocket Reference”.

That is a great point. I would just add: SRC's went out in 19. Horses weren't just essential in the western states before 1919, most people here in the east especially the ones not living in cities that were in need of rifles spent most of their travelling time on horseback or horse drawn wagon before 1919. Believe it or not, there was still unsettled wilderness here in the east with people trying to carve out a basic subsistence existence. Saddles, scabbards, horses and weather are hard on working rifles. Which makes an SRC still in good condition a very rare and valuable find "You cannot invade mainland America.

I'm glad you like it. Both the 1899B's I sold were super nice. I kinda miss seeing them hanging on the wall.
