$900.

This is a good way into a chronometer-certified Swiss dive watch without draining your bank account. Mido is part of the Swatch Group and not commonly available in the U.S. (They can be ordered through Macy's and I believe the nearest Mido dealer is in Dallas.) If I was an actual diver, I would...

Not a "box." Uses a rotary magazine. Only the Westfield, Massachusetts-manufactured 99C iterations use a "box" magazine.

I picked this up used awhile back, but it's kind of a chunk for me. Chronometer certified and I'll make a good deal for anyone interested. (Well under what a new one costs.)

This would be a new federal appointment for me if we can come to terms.

With the exception of Bryan County, Oklahoma is "rest of U.S." So there's that.

Good to know.

That was what I gathered from speaking with some ALC people. The grade for my job offer is just fine, but the step offered is way too low. This is also way outside of the OKC area. I already have a house and established residence and can load up some clothes and groceries and go. There won't be...

That was my understanding. The grade I've been offered encompasses and exceeds my present salary by a bit, but the step they offered is around $20K a year less than what I presently earn. I asked during the interview about negotiating an acceptable step and the hiring manager indicated that...

Anyone do this? Did the hiring agency work with you? How long did the negotiations take to complete?

40 yards. It took 10 rounds to anchor him and a final shot to the head.

Caught on one of my hay meadows tonight.

Nope. Savage didn't maintain detailed records after WWII, particularly when they moved to Westfield, Massachusetts. However, guns manufactured from 1949 to 1971 can be dated via their lever boss code (A through X, with the letters O, Q, and Z omitted).

This is a Model 99E, Savage's "economy" model (cartridge counter omitted, first versions released in 1960 with uncheckered walnut stocks, later years featured pressed checkering with non-walnut stocks), produced from 1960 to 1983. From what I can see of the wood, it's stained birch which would...
