Do you recall what they were asking for it? Just curious as I haven't seen a ton of them on the market ever.
My 1917 Savage in .32 ACP is back at the smith because he bunged up the safety when i had it in to him for repair for non-firing. I was thinking, that might be the start of a newish collection: Double Stack mag autos. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: My son and I saw a .45 Savage at the show before OGCA last. Being used to seeing .32ACP Savages by the dozens, this one is a beast, very impressive. Sadly it was JUST a bit more than we could afford, although I don't recall the exact asking price. I say asking, as I do not recall a line of folks lining up to buy it. Sure love to own one, though.
