1967 99C in 243 - slightly enhanced. Recoil pad, white liners, those things on the cheeks, arrowhead in the buttstock.. No idea what the story was. I just see the result. Maybe a customized gun for grandma way back when? ![[Linked Image from images.gunsinternational.com]](https://images.gunsinternational.com/listings_sub/acc_1167/gi_102105980/Savage-99c-243-Win_102105980_1167_3575B0FD1B82945F.jpg)

That's interesting... seen a lot of brass tacked and some iron nailed stocks, but never one with earrings set in it 🤔

I guess one has to do something to up the resale value of a post-mil.

Calhoun , Tell us the name of the store you were in when you took this picture. I think I see something I might be interested in.

I have seen older rifles with coins pressed into the stock, most likely glued
