Scarce Factory Engraved Savage Excelsior Grade Takedown Lever Action Rifle

Manufactured circa 1905 to 1917. The top of the barrel ahead of the rear sight is marked with the two-line address/patent dates and "HI-PRESSURE STEEL/-<SAV. .300>-" on the left side at the breech. The sides of the receiver are engraved with a floral scroll design with a fine punch dot pattern on the balance. The punch dot pattern extends to the takedown ring. The serial number is marked in a panel on the underside of the receiver. The barrel is fitted with a ramped blade front sight with an ivory bead and an adjustable folding leaf rear sight. The upper receiver tang is fitted with a Lyman short range peep sight. Blue finish with a casehardened lever, and mounted with a checkered walnut Schnabel forearm and pistol grip stock. Has a flame pattern at the front of the checkered areas and additionally a scallop border at the rear of the checkering on the forearm. The stock has checkered flats, a hard rubber grip cap, steel serrated buttplate and sling swivel eyes.

ConditionVery good. The barrel retains 40% thinning original blue finish with some areas fading to a smooth gray and a few minor scratches. The receiver has mostly a smooth gray patina. The lever has a smooth mottled gray patina on the contact areas and bright case colors on the sides. The wood is good with a large chip absent on left side near buttplate, scattered minor pressure dents, dings and scratches. The engraving and markings are clear. Mechanically excellent.
