Bought a few guns from the brother of the only native son to go to the Ranger School in Wanakena. Most of which were Adirondack guns from that vicinity.

Like I said earlier:
Yeah I've noticed. A poll or the location of the premier collectors- owners of the 99 remind me of the bulletin I get from my High School..Last one was the 40th reunion.
All but TWO of us who ain't dead still live less than 50 miles from where they went to H.S.
Alot of Savage rifles ( and collectors-accumulators) seem to stick close to where they was made too..:) Jim

Hunter 123 I went to Port Leydon elementary, then South Lewis Cental High (Goooo FALCONS!!!). Class of 81. TUG HILL boys are TOUGH!! To keep this Savage, at least every family I knew up there had at least one 99 shooter. Damn, that takes me back to the Black River Valley!! Dave
Don't fire unless fired upon. But if they want a war let it begin here.

1981? That was a good year, weren't it Dave??? Amazing I survived it, but it did have it's high points. I ain't from New York, and ain't got an inclination to ever visit NYC. Looking forward to the Fest though.. Heard you folks outside of the city ain't too bad.
