Payment Types Accepted: checks, cashiers/bank check, money order Description: SAVAGE 1899A .30-30 CALIBER RIFLE WITH CODY FIREARMS LETTER, #230XXX, MADE 1920. This is the classic early style rifle with straight stock, crescent butt plate, 26" round barrel and schnable forend. The Buffalo Bill Historical Center in Cody, Wyoming now has the original Savage serial number records. I called in on this one and found it is listed as described. There was a notation of "P" included that nobody seems to know the meaning of. It was also shown to be accepted on July 2, 1920 and shipped from the warehouse on October 17, 1922 to Sears Roebuck Company. This one turned up here in Bozeman, Montana, so might have been a typical mail order catalog purchase. Nice, unfooled with condition overall with sharp excellent bore, fine barrel blue, excellent markings, the receiver blue is thinning and mixing evenly with some brown, wood is generally fine with a few dings/storage marks on the forend with a very thin chip or sliver out near the forend tip on the right side- really minor. Has the correct Marbles tang sight with a blank slot filler in the rear dovetail. and a Marble #50 white bead front sight. Tight wood to metal fit and tight action with good rotary magazine spring. Has the cool little brass cartridge counter cut-out on the left side of the receiver. Nice crisp trigger pull. Desirable caliber!
