Assuming that I could acquire the parts I would like to know how it all went together. The offset is a bit strange looking. But, the bore is excellent so the rifle should be a good shooter. I could replace the Mk II sight, but that is the way Savage rifles came, so I might leave that alone. Maybe add a Parker-Hale sight. Simpson has some.
