The '''Savage Model 99''' is Savage's famous hammerless lever action rifle.  
The '''Savage Model 99''' is Savage's famous hammerless lever action rifle. The Savage 99 was the culmination of Arthur William Savage's lever action technology, using technology from their previous two rifles, the Savage 1892 and the Savage 1895, which was the first hammerless lever action rifle. The Savage 99, like its precursors, uses a hammerless design, as well as an internal rotary magazine (later models were also available with a detachable box magazine), thus allowing the use of spitzer bullets, something other lever guns were incapable of doing due to the use of tubular magazines. Apart from its innovative internal rotary magazine, the Model 99 also featured a round counter and striker indicator, features that paved the way for technical advancements on firearms today. The unique and reliable design of the Savage 99 allowed for many different models, finish options and caliber choices, making it a very popular hunting rifle while it was in production. Some of the finish options for the Savage 99 included different stock checkering, scope options, bolt jeweling and case hardening. Some of the models produced under the 99 design included the 99A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, R, RS, EG, T and the DL. The Savage 99 was produced for 100 years, from 1899 to 1999. Over one million Savage 99s were produced and it is still a popular choice with firearms enthusiasts today.

The Savage Model 99 is Savage's famous hammerless lever action rifle. The Savage 99 was the culmination of Arthur William Savage's lever action technology, using technology from their previous two rifles, the Savage 1892 and the Savage 1895, which was the first hammerless lever action rifle. The Savage 99, like its precursors, uses a hammerless design, as well as an internal rotary magazine (later models were also available with a detachable box magazine), thus allowing the use of spitzer bullets, something other lever guns were incapable of doing due to the use of tubular magazines. Apart from its innovative internal rotary magazine, the Model 99 also featured a round counter and striker indicator, features that paved the way for technical advancements on firearms today. The unique and reliable design of the Savage 99 allowed for many different models, finish options and caliber choices, making it a very popular hunting rifle while it was in production. Some of the finish options for the Savage 99 included different stock checkering, scope options, bolt jeweling and case hardening. Some of the models produced under the 99 design included the 99A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, R, RS, EG, T and the DL. The Savage 99 was produced for 100 years, from 1899 to 1999. Over one million Savage 99s were produced and it is still a popular choice with firearms enthusiasts today.
