Hoping someone can answer this or steer me in the right direction. Just picked up a nice Savage Model 1899 rifle, circa 1951. Pulled the butt plate and found the letters YG following the serial number. Apparently a model designation, but not one I can find in my reference books or online. Thanks in advance. TT
