Description:
EARLY SAVAGE MODEL 23 SPORTER .25-20 BOLT ACTION RIFLE, MADE 1920-1930s. It is my understanding that the early examples have a cocking head like on a 1903 Springfield and this one has that feature (handy when you want to keep a round in the chamber with the rifle un-cocked- just ease the cocking head down and then pull it back for the shot). Also it has no visible magazine release- one simply grasps the magazine on the finger serrations on the side, pushed forward and the magazine comes out. The original magazine is marked “Savage Sporter” with correct caliber designation. Bore is bright and excellent. Buckhorn rear sight with Rocky Mountain blade front sight. Still retains most of the barrel and action blue. Smooth steel shotgun butt plate is Savage marked. Fine stock showing minimal dings etc. which is unusual for a “utility” rifle like this that typically saw lots of use and little care. Has two very small sling swivel holes that would benefit from swivel studs. Classic pre-war style schnable forend tip and pistol grip. Exc. markings.  Lots of life left in this one. Came right out of here in Montana.
