Welcome to the forum, Bob!
There's a ton of good information here. I'm relatively new to the Savage/S40 world, too. In addition to the links that "stewmills" provided, check out the topics on the right side of the home page.

Welcome from Surrey, BC! 73? one year on me!
Winter is a great time for mods and updates, you just made it in time. As others have said, the Verslavy should be the first of a few updates you can do at home. Have fun!

Welcome to the forum.
Only on the cold days in England... which means it's open half the time.
