Building off the existing Model 64 platform, Savage has introduced a new variant of the light little rimfire designed for a quick breakdown. The Model 64 Takedown, chambered in .22 LR, sports a 16 1/2-inch barrel, a barrel nut designed for easy disassembly, a black-matte synthetic stock, a receiver drilled and tapped for scope mounts and a 10-round detachable box magazine. The rifle is available in both right- and left-hand models, each retailing for $249, and comes with an Uncle Mike's Bug-Out Bag for storage.
