Whenever they get something in they think they can't sell in the store, they put it on auction and do really well. This is a good example, could be "restored", but man it would be a lot of work......Scott http://www.auctionarms.com/search/displayitem.cfm?itemnum=7979229

They left the rifle cocked!! Thanks, Mike... All said, the Savage 99 is a genius of a rifle. Although no longer produced, it remains highly revered, as it was the foundation from which Arthur Savage built one of America's great gun companies. >> (Jon Y. Wolfe) <<
