my cousin has a 219 hornet barrel that belonged to his dad when his guns were stolen. he had a shotgun barrel on the receiver at the time and the hornet was put away, so the thives did'nt get it. vintage is probably late 40's. been looking for a receiver, stock and fore end for many years.(not the right places) practically unfired condition. just found this out this weekend. anyone out there in Savage land help out?

They come up quite regular on either GunBroker or AuctionArms sites. Past spring bought several for my collection--one straight 219, one 219/220 and one with letter suffix. There starting to appreciate in value as my first one bough back in the nineties was around two hundred dollars. Last one was double that plus some. These are in better shape due too collector desires and shooter grade may be obtained for less. Would imagine the hornet barrel would need fitting to whatever receiver you obtain.
