Posted By: Southern_WI_Savage Stith setup F.S. - 12/04/18
I bought a Model 1899A, 26", 30-30 some time ago that came with a Stith mount and scope.
I have re-installed a long rear sight on the rifle which I prefer and removed the Stith setup which I intend to sell.

I have been advised by those with more knowledge of Stith mounts than I that this particular setup has had the front/dovetail mounting piece changed out Savage for Winchester as the Winchester part is longer which allows it to fit a Model 1899 rifle vs. Model 99 which the Stith was designed for. (the rear dovetail location is different from Model 1899 to Model 99)

It also has a Kollmorgan scope that has some handling marks on it but it has clear optics with a post and horizontal cross-hair.
The Kollmorgan has elevation adjustment, but no windage adjustment. However the front mount has 2 set screws that lock it in the dovetail and a person could drift it some amount L/R for windage.

It's not a standard Stith/Alaskan setup or a Stith w/windage/Bear Cub II setup, but sort of a hybrid.
I've shot it and it was on paper, but I never dialed it in as I planned to remove it in favor of an iron sight.

Price is $235 shipped. PM your interest.
