A marketing ploy! EG rat, drilled and tapped, sling swivel, major bluing wear, I don't think your missing anything!

Even in Winchester terms,that's only a semi-delux
When it comes to choosing friends....I'm at an age where I'd rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.

Seeing a lot of 99EG's marked as "Deluxe" on the auction sites lately. Don't know who started it, but others are continuing.

Hey Jason. I saw that one too. The BoneHead thinks that he will get better bids, I guess. Mike...
All said, the Savage 99 is a genius of a rifle. Although no longer produced, it remains highly revered, as it was the foundation from which Arthur Savage built one of America's great gun companies. >> (Jon Y. Wolfe) <<
