I wouldn't give $8.50 for it. Nevermind $850.00

Never cared for plywood on my boats either!

If I had a fine pre-64 WInchester featherweight 270 and that Savage, I'd hunt the schit out of that levergun.

Ugliness aside, and it is indeed ugly, the workmanship is admirable. Check out that forearm work. Someone put a lot of effort into creating that abomination.

Pretty much sinks my boat, but I can admire the work done to it. Probably could have been a decent rifle if the maker would have used walnut or some sort of real wood.

Ok, time for me to get tar and feather treatment. Normally I do not gravitate to that sort of Tom-foolery, BUT for some unexplainable reason I can't soberly justify, I kinda like it. I would like to see it in darker wood, I having a clairvoyant moment that tells me not to post this, but I've done more stupider things in my time.

I have a 99E that had the worst looking furniture ....too my eyes...that you ever seen! "Louisville slugger" look alike.....almost to the point that I would pass it along..... I talked, listened, and learned so much on this sight. I now have a great shooter and a decent looking rifle!
