Interesting early Savage 1928 on GB


Recommended Posts

It appears that the barrel was replaced at some point before it left Britain, based on their proof marks on it. If the barrel had been swapped in the U.S., it is unlikely that they would have used a British-proofed solid barrel. Yes, the original barrel would have been finned.

 

The British are also known for force matching trigger frame numbers to the receiver, as was done here. That is often done even with deactivated guns in Britain. As already noted, at least the trigger frame is from another early Savage.

 

We will have to wait to see if it sells at that price. I would not be surprised if it does.
