Hi, I just inherited some guns from my dad, and we are trying to get more info (age, variation, etc) and value range on two Savages. Right now I'm only asking about the Model 99.
It has a peep scope with a smaller insert ring, and a wooden stock with a Decelerator (Pachmayr?) butt pad. It has some stock wear, and some bench wear on the bottom of the receiver, and slight scratches on the left side of the receiver. The Blue Book of Gun Values is not very specific and varies according to age, variant, etc. This gun has a six-digit serial number starting with 746XXX. It is a 24-inch barrel and is in .300 Savage.
I've attached some (sorry, a lot!) of pix below. I'm no photographer and not a firearms expert. If this is asking too much of the good folks here, is there someone that is still doing historical letters I might contact instead?
Thanks
3F?
F would be 1954.
Sweet, a 54 not tapped for scope and with cold case lever. Too bad about the receiver scratches. Whaddyathink? $750-$1000?
Take a look on the auctions sights, that will give you a good idea of what they sell for. I don't mind a little wear and tear, that's what give them charactor and adds to the history. Every scratch dent and ding tells a story, if the gun could only talk!!
