Where you been, Randy? Not 110's, they made a run of M1895's accurate in every detail with the originals and chambered in .303 Savage, and at the original 1895 price. Not advertised, they sold out in minutes (mostly to Savage employees on the shipping dock- go figure). The ones that actually made it out into the world were scooped up by some guy in Oregon- Ray, or Boy, or somesuch- and the last I heard he gave them away to some homeless fellas he met on The Campfire, whatever that is.
When queried about future commemoratives of that nature, The CEO of Savage said that sometime in 2020 they'll do a run of M1920's and 99G's to mark their 100th anniversary. Maybe a half-dozen of each, first come first served. Sale to be conducted at The Mystery Oregonian's back porch. Cash and Carry only.

Looking forward to picture. One of the reasons I couldn't commit was the wood didn't look as nice as the 50th Anniversary 110's. Hope it was even better!

Heard that these rifles would all be in 250 SAV with a 1-10 twist... Only in my dreams.
Nice looking rifle, Texken!

There are a bunch of those right handed suckers on Gunbroker. I just don't know if I could deal with a right handed bolt gun anymore. (whine)
