I jumped on one of those very few Savage Enfields that Aim Surplus had available last week. See the pictures below. The wood has lots of dents and dings and the metal has a brown patina that actually looks more like baked on grease and grime. For example, that spot on the receiver that looks like corrosion is dried grease or something. It comes off with my finger nail. The barrel looks OK, better than the pictures show and has potential once I get the gunk out. It will definitely take some time to get this thing cleaned up but hopefully it will look pretty good. Not sure it was worth the asking price, but I wanted a Savage. Also, the action is pretty incredible. It is really smooth even with all the dried gunk.
