I had a chance to buy an old Savage 720 a few days ago. The stock was pretty worn but was not cracked, all the metal parts were also very worn but as far as I could tell everything was functioning properly.
The gun was on consignment from a woman who lost her husband and was selling off his collection.
It was priced at $200.00. I didn't see any engravings or interesting markings and it appeared to be a pretty plain shotgun with a fairly long barrel.
Today I decided I would buy it if it was still there.... but when I called to see if it was still there, they said it had been sold.
I know this model is similar to the Browning A5, and I'm interested in the way it functions.
I'm not really looking to spend more money on a new firearm, but I can't help feeling like I want to add a shotgun of this design to the safe.
Maybe I should be on the look out for another one. I think I remeber reading that Remington made a similar model.
