Sandman1957 Posted July 3, 2016 Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 I am posting this for a friend of mine. I have it in my possession. It is a Savage marked, knurled, dulite finished, safety lever for the Savage 1928 TSMG. It has the hole in the lever. PM me with offers if interested. I am not sure what this is worth, so all the experts out there please chime in. (There are no scratches on this, the thing in the hole is Flash reflection.)

Sandman1957 Posted July 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2016 Sold pending funds. However, I would like to know from the experts out there what the fair market value on this should be at this time. I will pm all those who made offers. My friend thanks you. I may be able to move some more of his bits and pieces. It'll be a little while before I see him again. S/Fi,Sandman1957 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reconbob Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 What did you sell it for? As I say all of the time the value of something at anygiven time is what somebody is willing to pay for it. A guy wanting this to corrector complete an early gun is going to pay a lot more than a guy just looking tohave some extra parts. This is a rare part. Other than on a gun I do not recall the last time I saw onefor sale. If/when I did it was here or on Gunbroker or EBay. A standard flat leversafety is what? $25-$35? So you'd be throwing this away for $50. If a guy has a$30,000 early Savage but with the later Un-knurled safety, what's this worth tohim to correct his gun? And what effect on the selling price of his gun if it hasThe WW2 safety vs. this correct knurled safety? Answer: A LOT! How much is the buyier going to try to knock down the price of that $30,000gun because it's got the wrong safety? Where is he going to get one? Go toWalmart? Watch Gunbroker and EBay for years? Put in this context and there is your answer. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzz Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 The shame of it is that a lot of parts like this are probably sitting in desk drawers, never to be seen again. Think about it - what happened to all the tons of milsurp gun parts that were sold for cheap back in the old days? Certainly all those millions of parts didn't get worn out and replaced. They're sitting in boxes in attics and basements and maybe once in a while some widow throws them away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
