I have the above rifle but am having a difficult time establishing the year of manufacture...the rifle is going up for sale and i would like to represent it correctly...serial number is D443833 in the deluxe version of the rifle...also would like to know how much more (if any) the deluxe version of the rifle might be worth..any help would be appreciated...thanks
 
Maddog will tell you exactly the year, but late 1970's I believe.

Condition is everything as far a price goes though.

$600.00 to $700.00 if it's like new.

The real collectible 99's were made before 1960, with serial numbers below 1 million, and no letter prefix.
(unless it's in a scarce caliber like .358, .375, or 7MM-08)

Looks like 1952

Incorrect!

as mentioned above, letter prefix's were added in the late 1960's, starting with "A".
Don't get the lever boss code mixed up with the prefix in the serial number.

His gun was made in the late 1970's or early 1980's.

A Savage 99 made in the 1950's will have the safety on the lever, and no letter in the serial number,
starting around 1960 the safety was on the tang.
