THREE EDITIONS!

Sooner or later some wisacre is going to ask for an audio book version. And there's the Kindle users too. Maybe one in Braille?

Large print version looks like a set of Encyclopedia Britannicas. Throw it on the lawn cart and head to the gunshow! LOL.

Hey I'd like any reference books Savage you fellas put together.

I would love a braille copy to place prominently on my bench at the range. Guys all up and down the line will be more anxious than a dog trying to pass a peach pit sideways.

Maybe he will make a special issue with a pocket on the back for reading glasses.

print books are, .. so 15th century. How about a fully programmed small I-tablet, with chronological pages, serial number ranges for each model, and a single picture, then clickable links for further drop-down detail menus?
...or, maybe you could do fold-out pages...

Thanks for all Your work!! And I agree, more reference material will be great!! All ships rise with the tide! Sign me up for three copies please! I don't need a numbered copy, I'd be happy just owing you copy-right money for the rest of my life, (... a personal "Rory Hancock" dedication would be nice!)

I'd get one, take one, buy one, and be interested in one. ??? There's three for sure and a maybe. I would buy one though ifin ya did offer the book.

I'll take one.

Put me on the list for 2 copies Rory.

So this would be like a new and improved Murray's book? I'm in!

Great idea. I would like to have one.

Obviously both Murray's and mine are Savage 99 reference books and will talk about 99's, but mine isn't just an updated Murrays. In fact I think I opened Murray's book once while writing this, and that was just to see what he had for the precursor rifles - which won't be in the pocket reference at all.

This is more properly called the campfire pocket reference guide.. cuz I scrounged through a lot of old threads and had folks (Rick, Fug, Gene) digging through old notes for information on everything. I think I got Loggah to walk a few extra miles looking at his guns every now and then too.

That sounds great. Sign me up.

exactly, hadn't thought of that

That sounds like a great idea and would become another valued "stays in the truck and travels to every show" reference book!!!
I'd take one or two.

Absolutely great idea for knowing what Savage you may find at s gun show.

Rory, do you have a photo of a Rentzschke engraved 99F? I missed one at the Denver show quite a few years ago because I didn't know what is was. I'll send you a photo if you don't have one.

Rory, is there a time frame for release, or still too soon for that?

I don't yet, but I doubt I'll have a picture of one in the pocket reference. Probably need one for the full book.


I'd sure love to have it for sale by summer.

I wish every Tom Dick and Harry who will ever buy, own, borrow, inherit, or steal a Savage 99 buys one of these field guides. Aside from eliminating a lot of super-repetitive queries here and on FB, it would make Calhoun filthy stinkin' rich and he could then take us all out for ice cream.

Make a note that I'll take a copy, Rory.
