Hi,
I inherited a Savage Model 1899 22 HP break down Lever action rifle. Serial 196 128. I don't know anything about these rifles. It is pitted a fair bit which I am considering getting it restored? Can you still buy ammo for these guns. Are they good guns for hunting? Are they a good gun to restore? How much are they worth? I don't want to sell the gun just interested. On the barrel in has stamped MANUFACTURE BY SAVAGE ARMS COMPANY UTICA N Y USA PAT -FEB/1893. JULY 25 1893. OCT 31 1899 MAY 25 1909. JUNE 1 1909. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks
