Article On A Savage 99 in .32-40 - 04/15/15
Friends, I seldom post on the Savage forum, mostly because I don't know a lot about the finer points of Savage Arms. However, I totally appreciate and love 99s, so I lurk.
That said, there is an article in the most recent Guns magazine that most of you would enjoy. The title of the article is Guns With Character. The piece was written by my very good friend and hunting pal, Holt Boddinson and it's about a Savage 99 in .32-40. Apparently, the original owner was one heck of a hunter and he had the rifle customized to suit his needs in the field.
In many ways, the customizing is as interesting as the rifle itself.
By the way, Holt is the real deal. He is about as knowledgeable a gun writer as I know and he is an incredible hunter. Holt also has a love of old and arcane firearms, so he brings a lot of interesting lore to each piece he writes.
Anyway, I thought I'd mention the article.
Easter Blessings,
Steve
