Provided the barrels are good, it would still make a great platform for a custom gun if the price was right. Looking at it even closer this morning, its got graded forearm metal on it instead of typical sterlingworth metal. I doubt if the serial number match in other words, unless it was sent back to Savage late in its life and some work done on it by the factory. I've got a Fox SW with a ejector beavertail forearm and it also has graded forearm metal on it. It however is a circa 1936 gun, not a Philly gun like this one. Also, the grip cap isn't right based on two examples I just pulled out of the gun safe. Stock has also been cut and it has wrong checkering IMO. Like I said, more wrong then right, but IF the barrels are ok, everything else is manageable. You might be able to make something really special out of that gun, but right now it looks like a pimped up Civic I see cruising around Northern Virginia all the time.
