I've been offered this gun by the guy who sold me the Savage 887.
It's a savage Stevens 325-a in .30-30, bolt action, box mag, 3+1, and except for a minor flaw or two it's in OK shape for an old gun.
It's from 1948, and the stock is supposed to be blonde, but has been stained darker since these were taken.
It has a machine-gun style barrel nut, and the rumor is these were built from leftover parts from the war.
He's asking $300 which seems fair. I really feel I should collect this one except, I really want a .308 target gun. I keep putting it off to buy other stuff...stuff that turns out to be great stuff...but the distractions are too winning.
So unless I hear cries of, "You fool, buy it now!" I'm going to let this one pass.
I'll put some pix up in 5 mins.
