    One More rifle lost by USPS

I send priority with track and insurance and take photos at all stages of packing and photos of the gun and labels at...

    Those familiar with SAVAGE STEVENS

    The Criterion barrels are also excellent values, and beautiful. If you really want to trick it out buy a PTG Fluted Bolt Body, and a PTG bolt head, if you really want to go all the way with it.
