Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Savage Collectors K question

As far as "K" prices i know that $3000 is the economy price, I would say $4000-$5000 is the normal price for high condition K prices. A K in 22 HP who knows $$. Don

When I was looking for a K you offered it to me. Like the idiot that I am, I passed. On the flip side, if I hadn't I wouldn't have ended up with the one I got at that time. It STILL makes me drool.

Hey "OLD COOT" it has a lot to many extra holes in it for you !!!!! actually i think im going to put the redfield 102l base on it and put the rest of the sight in the butt, just in case the weaver goes DEMOCRAT !!!!!

That 1899A T/D I bought a few years ago had EIGHT extra holes and I only spotted 4. You pointed out the extras. Sometimes I don't engage more than ONE sense at any given time. I need to keep working on that.

Don
I can tell you how much a K in 22H.P. cost LOTS

Sooo, that means if I sell my whole collection, I'll have about half of what would be needed for a 22HP K? Do I take the forearm and barrel, or the action and butt stock?

Wow, that's nice. Really like the trapdoor buttplate. That's a beautiful and unique rifle. The lever does look a little odd. Does it shorten the stroke when working the action? Wondering why it was ordered that way.

You fellas know more about it than I ever will, but what makes anyone think it's a factory buttstock?

From one of Loggah's earlier posts.

"Here's a couple of pictures of the custom "K" i have,it does not have a K stamp on the receiver but letters as a special K made in 1931."

Roy, The wood grain absolutely matches the numbered forearm. It has a lot of "EXTRAs, that could be done in the savage custom shop. The lever had to be formed before it was case hardened,if anyone tried to reform it after hardening it would break!!!! ask me how i know?? I have had a number of people smarter then myself also ,and we all agree as a factory custom. The lever is about the same shape as a win 88. The letter does state a special K but does not state anything different. Don

Sorry I missed those details. Struggling with the flu and my pencil ain't real sharp right now. Those are very interesting details too.

Roy, If you cant get rid of that flue quickly, go to a few DEMONCRAT meetings and spread it around !!!!!

Paid $3600 a few months ago for a pretty nice 250-3000 K. 24" barrel, all matching,etc. I posted pics at the time I got it. That's a really interesting rifle Don.

If you have that Chinese strain, go to Wash DC and spread it around the House and Senate Dem members. They'd be quarantined for a while and then maybe Congress can get done what they are suppose to do for America instead of the last couple months of the impeachment nonsense. Just sayin'!




David-In all of your research for your book and all, have you ever seen a lever like the K in this thread? That is one nice lookin rifle, beautiful wood and lines. The more I read your book, the more I realize what a good investment I made. Besides reading posts on this forum and reading your book, I've increased my Savage 99 knowledge by leaps and bounds from what it was several years ago and that was just basic knowledge that they existed and a bit of history. I recall you posting the pictures of your K, I'll have to go back in the pages and take another look.

After viewing all these Savage 99's in Fugs, Loggah's, and Fireball 2's collections, not to mention some of ya who may have similar or large collections, I can see why I never see many 99's around my Midwestern area, they're all hid away in an unknown number of large collections. Nice to see the pictures, high fives to ya all.

That lever and pistol grip are new ones to me. But then something new is always turning up. Glad you like the book.

You've confused me with the real collectors. I am not.

Waall', forgive me if I attributed ya to something you don't believe you are apart of, but I was pretty impressed with yours when ya showed some safe pictures and such. Glad I was able to get one of yours.

none of my Ks have the k stamp

"OH BROTHER" !!!!! Thats it this place wont be the same. I was going to see if Cheryl would take pictures of your collection to post,you got better guns then i have.

both of mine have the K stamp. They are both early production. Serial #'s 298xxx and 309xxx.
