Hi all. My father passed away recently and left me his old collection of guns. In it I found this Savage chambered in .303 SAV.
I'm not a classic gun guy and am probably going to get rid of it at some point (he left me plenty of other cool guns I plan on keeping), but I have no idea exactly what it is. I tried looking it up on a few sites (American Rifleman, savage99.com) and I think it is a model 1899c? Manufactured between 1901 & 1903? I couldn't quite nail it down.
Also I know the stock isn't original and he might have the original in his shed somewhere, but I have no idea what this thing would even be worth if the original stock is lost. Appreciate any light you all can shed on this!
