Yes you can get Savage at walmart and yes they are quality guns imo. The quality of Savage firearms seem to be improving each year as well as the looks. The Savage rifles i've owned were very accurate right out of the box and like i said they aren't the best looking rifles on the market but they are true workhorses. I'm a Remington fan but i wouldn't hesitate to by another Savage if a deal comes my way. If you choose Savage i don't think you'll be disappointed.
