Hello, first time poster here with a question. I am thinking of purchasing a Savage .308 from a friend of mine. I am unsure of the exact model, it says 10 on the barrel.

Its a .308, 20in heavy barrel, 4.275 screw spacing, blind mag attached to action, large bolt handle, accutrigger, no accustock, 3 pos safety.

The rifle appears to be in good shape cosmetically and mechanically except for one thing. The top of the safety is getting chewed up by the bottom of the bolt. This seems abnormal to me. What gives?
