Hey guys,

 

I  have been in the market for a Savage Mark II and cant seem to find one locally. Anyone spot on in NJ they want to direct me to? im looking for one in .22lr with Accutrigger thats tapped for scope mounts. Bonus points if it has a threaded barrel and/or iron sights.

 

Thanks for the help!

Without knowing where you are, I've seen them at Ramsey Outdoor in Succasunna before, though I think the only one they had there last time I noticed was a lefty model...  Might be worth giving them a call and seeing if they have any left.

 

I was at Dick's last night, they had Savage 93 (.22mag/17hmr) magazines in stock.  I assume that means they carry some of the 93 series rifles, so they might have MkIIs as well.

 

If you don't find something locally, go to Savage's site, and find out the specific models (BRJ, TR, FVT, etc) that interest you.  Write down the model name and the SKU.  Use this forum's Gun Price Request tool, a forum vendor may have what you want.  If you still can't get what you want...

 

I bought my Savage 93R17 TR (.17HMR) off gunbroker for $360 + shipping - it is normally one of their more expensive rimfires.  There are a fair number of FFLs who will transfer for ~$40.  Looking online, you may find the exact model you want, and for a good price.  I've got plans to get a Mark II and/or 93R BRJ, BSEV and FVT eventually.

 

 

Good luck in the search, you'll love your Mark II if it's anywhere near as fun as my 93R17TR...

thank you for the advice i will give it a shot!

 I know that as of Tuesday this week Shore Shot Pistol Range in Lakewood has a Mark II with the Tac Rail system.  They also have the Tactical Semi-Automatic with the threaded barrel.  The prices seemed fair too.

I picked up a Savage Mark II FVSR off of Bud's Gun Shop not too long ago. I calculated that with their price and a $40 transfer fee, I still made out pretty well considering the mark-up I've seen at NJ LGSs  They are out of stock now.

Dick's Sporting Goods carries at least a few Savage Mark II .22LRs as part of their "basic gun lineup" (my terminology).

 

I shop at the Fairless Hills DSG but started at the Princeton one.  IMHO the Princeton DSG has a very basic and limited lineup and it has gotten much more basic ie worse since early 2010.  However, they still have like one version of the usual DSG models (Like minimum one Remington 700 model, one Remington 597 .22LR, one Savage Mark II / 93 etc).

 

 

I bought my Savage Mark II from DSG in Princeton but it is on the shelf at Fairless Hills along with a few other models, I bought a "GXP" which is G for basic wood stock, XP for combo package, with scope.  It is a featured DSG item at around $200.  I understand since I bought mine in early 2010 the price may have gone up $20 to like $220 , and I got a sale price of $149.99 someone told me they found a sale for $159.99.

 

As I mentioned, I saw at least a few different at Fairless Hills just last week.

I bought a "GXP" at Dicks in Freehold back in May for 158.99.  Put around 1000 rounds through it and no problems so far.

i finally got one!

 

 

thanks for the help.

sorry for the shitty pic :F

Looks just like mine. Did it have an accutrigger?

sadly no

sadly no

 

Then the FIRST thing on your to do list is to do a trigger job, unless you have a chain hoist handy to pull the trigger for you.  It cost me $3 and took 5 min. What emerged was a shockingly smooth and crisp trigger.

is that the thing where i cut the sear spring?

I didn't cut the sprint, I replaced mine.  Additionally, you put a shim between the trigger assembly and the action. I used a .02" feeler gauge.  It's a world of difference.

what spring should i replace it with?

 

could you show me a pic of where you put the guage?

 

thank you so much for this, my finger was sore from shooting it!

I took the spring out of a bic or similar lighter and cut it to size.  

 

You're going to cut a small piece of a feeler gauge and use it to shim between where the trigger group makes contact with the barrel and receiver assembly.  Think of it this way, if you take the action out of the stock and flip it upside down. There are 3 allen screws there.  You want to place the shim between the 2 rear ones.  I put a dab of clear nail polish to hold it in place and just reinstalled the screws. I'm not near my rifle right now otherwise I would take pics.

Congratulations that looks to be the same I got.

 

very curious, what scope did you get with it?  I bought mine in early (March) 2010.  I got a Bushnell [i cannot for the life of me remember the submodel but it came with an instruction manual with the model name on it] 3-9x40mm that was AMAZING for a little combo package scope.  I actually had to show proof to some know it all gunshop counter monkey wannabe-Dick's Sporting Goods employee in Arizona....who claimed "[he] is the one who installs scopes on the combo package guns for Dick's [obviously his own store only] and we only put cheap Tasco/BSA/Etc. 4x scopes on the Savage Mark II G/XP".  When I forwarded the pictures, "Oh ... well.. obviously they chose to do it differently in Northeast".

 

I did more research and found I got pretty lucky, someone installed a scope on some Mark II's that was a few levels above the particular "paygrade" and then when it was found out, they corrected the error and installed cheaper scopes and particularly 4x scopes.  I loved that little Bushnell and would not have touched it....  but my jacka$$-of-all-trades old friend who wanted to learn how to shoot let the rifle and scope fall at the range.... and the rifle landed on the scope.  Still worked, but needed to be totally rezeroed each time used [which is useless imho].  I took advantage of a sale and put another Nikon ProStaff 4-12x40mm on it, and it has only got more amazing with time and hi-quality scope.

 

 

 

 

Anyway congratulations, I hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine and get the same success as I have ... good luck and good on ya.
