If we had a like button I would have hit it.

With the crescent butt, I thought it could be used as a crutch for Wilt the Stilt?

Your pics are great and so is your find. Truly a miracle that in a 116 years some short barrel whiner (sbw) didn't cut the barrel down. sbw's long predated savage 99's. How about a pic of it over a nice fat 4x4 whitetail?..mb

I never gave that much thought, I guess back then, just as today, a hack saw was cheaper than a new rifle. Maybe it stayed in the family a long time and rode out it's time in a closet corner? We are all lucky Keith found this one.
