Savage Model 69 RXL

[tonyz]

I have a chance to buya Savage Model 69 RXL defensive shot gun.

It is in excellent condition. The wood is 95+ % No scratches or ding's.
The metal and blueing have no scratches, and only a couple very small wear marks on the pump rail and tube. The internals look new, barrel bore looks spot less, and the rest of what I can see looks almost new.

I know savage is not the top of the line, but what are the pro's and Con's of this gun.


Any Info would be appreciated.

Here is some information on the Savage 69 RXL.

Its a good defensive shotgun, used by the police, also in the military. It saw action in Vietnam.
With a 7+1 capacity and if it is in the condition you say, it would make a good HD Shotgun,- IMHO.
