1. Go to a picture storage site like Photobucket. http://photobucket.com/

(http://photobucket.com/)2. Create an account.

3. Upload pictures

4. Go to picture and right click on the picture

5. Using drop down menu and select copy

6. Go to your post and right click in the post frame and click paste.

Or you follow 1-3 and then use the 3 or four alternative ways to post a picture.

Sounds easy enough. But apperently my photo bucket account needs updating.
That is no doubt easy also but you know what?

The date finder on the Savage99.com site is notoriously inaccurate. Your S/N is far lower than anything I've collected in the past from others so I can't help ya, and Mad Dog probably won't be back to civilization for another 6-8 weeks or so. Have a few other pretty knowledgeable guys on here in terms of 99's so hopefully they will chime in and help you out.

The other option is to have it lettered.

Made in 1902, model 1899A.

Ya, I'm slow.
