It’s been awhile since we’ve done a rifle company profile. With that in mind, RJ Contorno is joining us on the show today to talk about Savage Arms. We’re going to talk about the entire line of Savage’s centerfire rifles from the Axis to the 110 and everything in between. I learned a few things about Savage myself during this interview, and I’m sure you will too.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
