Savage 219 Line Throwing Gun

(1/2) > >>

Garnett:
Today I got my M219 Savage.  It has been converted into a line throwing gun.  It has a serial number so I am going to write Savage for a factory letter.  It was converted by LAL's Gun Shop, North Haven, Conn.  The gun was made in 1964 at Westfield.  It was a .22 Hornet converted to .218 Bee, smooth bore.  It is called a "Nemisis".  If anyone has any information on this conversion, please contact me.

CDSUSMC:
 Now that's something you don't see everyday! How unusual, please let us know  what Savage has to say. Thank for the photo.

Garnett:
The letter is in the mail.  I hope to get some good information, but you never know.  Instead of buying direct from Savage, this LAL's gun shop may have purchased from a local hardware store.  However, the job is so professional, they may have done more than one and hopefully purchased several guns at one time from Savage.

Sentry44:
Garnett, did you ever get your letter response?  They aren't great about it, both when Callahan did it, and since.  Such an interesting gun.  I could make GREAT use of this throwing line over high branches for tree work!

Garnett:
My bank notified my last Tuesday that the check made to them was cashed.  I am away from home and will return Monday.  Hopefully the letter will be there.  I'll keep you posted.
