Exceptional Savage Model 1899-B Lever Action Rifle with Factory Letter

The accompanying factory letter lists this rifle with an optional 28 inch octagon barrel (26 inch was standard) in .303 Savage, hard rubber buttplate and grade "A" stock checkering when shipped on August 24, 1904 to C.A. Waterbury (address unknown). Equipped with Lyman beaded blade front, Lyman folding two-leaf rear and tang peep sights. The receiver has a cartridge counter.

ConditionExcellent, retaining 90% plus bright original high polish blue finish with thinning to a brown on the balance. 95% original case colors remain on the lever. The wood is very fine with some chipping on the forearm tip, some minor handling evidence and crisp checkering overall. Mechanically excellent.
