$25.50 for the 1899CD, another $5 for takedown == $30.50 in 1907.
The order code would have PERFUMELY. The trailing "ly" indicated it was to be a takedown.

Thanks Calhoun for the pictures and info on the price and order code.
Next is ordering a letter. After a very long wait I now am in contact with Cody in Wy. and it looks like $75.00 for a letter.
Is that the new way of getting a letter? I don't like changes.

Yep, that's the new way. If you become a member you can get it cheaper, but that only helps if you are going to get at least 3.

That or a one year membership ($150-$250) if taking a trip to Yellowstone with the family and have other rifles you want answers on.

cool, That's the newer takedown. The other one was an earlier octagon barrel 1899. I wonder if anyone here got it? I cover CD's to some extent in the new book.

WOW that is a beautiful rifle! Not that it matters but has the receiver been reblued? It seems very black-colored for 1908 bluing. I would love to own a rifle like that! Congratulations, its a beauty!

Seen a CD in a collection that I bought some 1899 's from a couple days ago Non takedown better condition. Individual wasn't selling it but advised me he paid $6,000. for it. Also a 1899c 90% with an oct 30" barrel with a former owners name on it, also not for sale. Seemed pricey for a CD but what do I know. GW
