Re: Savage 99 “Why” Question.
it really awkward if you shoot and carrry left handed Now I'm curious. What is awkward about shooting a 99 left handed? The safety is awkward, havent figured out how to flip it of with my left finger. The actual shooting is a true pleasure. Not as fast as a M92 but the added range makes up for it.
