Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Savage Collectors Lightfoot Scope Mount

I am going to stop building the Lightfoot mount. My inventory of parts and supplies is about to run out and I am going to stop then.

Most of the remaining mounts are sold and I am not accepting new orders through the Lightfoot email.

I have some health issues now with the repetitive motion at the drill press and it is just too dam hard anymore.

Thanks to all for the incredible support!

Thanks for supporting us for all these years. Take a break, you deserve it.

Hope you get your health problems sorted out.

Always very sad to see the end of an era, your work is going to be missed.
Hope you get the health issues resolved Mike

Take it easy, Mike. Thank you for your keenness in seeing a need and filling it.

Thank You for all your hard work Mike! Take the time and get well my friend.

Thank you Mike, Your work is outstanding and will be missed. Best of the best IMHO. May God heal you and give you a long fruitful life.........Again, thank you so much for your service to the Savage community.
Sincerely,
D.P.Reynolds

Sorry to hear of the this Mike. i will cherish your art work on my 300.
be well and happy.

Sorry to hear this also Mike. Gods Blessings for your health. Thank you for your work and product over the years. I also will be thankful I have a couple of your mounts.

Lightfoot and the mounts will go down in Savage Arms history! Thank you.

Have you considered passing the torch?

As much as everybody loves the sights, your health is far more important!

Any idea how many you made? It'll definitely be a permanent piece of Savage 99 history.

I smell an addendum in your 2nd Edition!

I am really sorry to hear this. I have a number of your mounts and one appears in the engraved book. It has been engraved and is mounted on my 99K 300. Killed two deer with that setup.

Last year I set a target to do 500 total and wind it up. Almost made it...

In the vein of the 1 millionth Savage 99 - let's just say I made 500.

Mike, sorry to hear about the health issues, but hopefully they'll resolve quickly once you stop the repetitive motion.

I've not had a reason to order one of your mounts as most of my rifles have peep sights of one type or another, although I do have a couple with Stiths. But from what I've seen and the various reviews, the workmanship is superb. To all of those out there with Lightfoot mounts, congratulations. The value of your mounts just doubled!

Mike, I assume you are going to continue to supply other 99 parts you have on hand as you have in the past. (I hope so.)

Sorry to hear about your health issues Mike. Praying that you get those problems resolved.

Your Lightfoot mount will go down in history with 99 collectors Mike. You can be very proud of such a great idea and accomplishment. I’m so glad that I have one.

Congratulations sir and wishing you well

Joe

Mike, like so many blokes here has been a great friend over the years its a shame to see such a great product finished. Mike I hope health improves and you enjoy your retirement of stepping away from the drill press. All the best

Thanks Mike for filling a void , of a needed mount! Time to enjoy your retirement!

Sorry to hear about your health issues Mike. Wish you well in your re-retirement.

Damned old age and its acks and pains.

Sorry to see the mount production end. Just glad it was your choice and not for other reasons.

You have made a lot of Savage 99 guys happy with your quality product.

Maybe the price of Stith mounts will go back up now...
