Savage 99

[Weak Daze]

I got a Savage 99 lever action rifle from a friend. It came with a Williams scope and mount on it.
I removed the scope and mount looking for the model number, when it was drilled and tapped the drill went
thru the model number.

I have the serial number and the build date code.

My question is, is there a way to find the model number for the serial or is it someplace else on the gun?

The build date is 23B which makes it a 1950 build date.

The serial is 5596XX.

Thanks in advance, Bill
