Description:

Manufactured in 1911. The barrel has the standard two-line address and patent marking on top in front of the rear sight and the caliber marking at the breech. The two-line high pressure steel and model marking is offset on the left of the barrel at the rear sight. The sides and top of the receiver have attractive factory Grade A engraving executed by Savage Master Engraver Enoch Tue. The serial number is marked on the bottom of the receiver, inside the buttplate, on the butt of the stock under the plate, and on the butt of the forearm. It is fitted with a Marble No. 3 combination front sight, elevation adjustable notch rear sight, and a Lyman peep sight mounted on the upper tang of the receiver. Four filler screws are visible on top of the non-factory tapped receiver. It is mounted with a very finely figured, multi-point checkered, Schnabel tip forearm, and pistol grip perch-belly stock with a sling swivel and a smooth crescent buttplate.

Rating Definition:

Very good, the receiver retains 40% of the original blue finish, strong traces of the original case colors on the lever, and the barrel and buttplate retain 85% of the refinished blue finish with the balance having thinned to a smooth grey patina. The lightly sanded and reoiled wood is also very good with a couple hairline cracks near the upper tang, some scattered light handling marks, and otherwise mostly crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
