I wanted to say hello from Pa, I am new to the savage scene but am really into all curios and antiques, I have been into various lever guns for over twenty years, I just recently got bit by these single shot savages, it all started when I stumbled across a box with a savage label on the end and it said model 223 but the barrels have model 220 and 219 on them, it's a really neat older gun which is right up my alley and learning you can interchange some of these barrels really is great hoping to start a new collection, I figured this should be the place to learn more about them, thanks for having me!
