Is this factory or a later addition? On a Savage 99-K. Also, the factory letter is attached.

Not sure why I cannot add multiple photographs today???
I have the same type swivel on my 99G takedown. It replaces the front screw of the forearm release button.
1927 pricelist: "Sling Straps, complete with screw eyes and swivels for Models 99 and 20 rifles ... $2.50"
They sold them. They show up on about 50% of 99K's. I personally think they are factory.
50% is too high a percentage not to be factory. And so I agree.Quote:
