After you have a little more experience, your first thought will be "OH SHIT"! Your second thought will be, "OH SHIT"! Your third thought will be, "This is going to cost me". Your fourth thought will be, "I'm glad I wasn't wearing my new leather jacket. Jackets cost money and skin grows back, most of the time."
My wife dumped her Savage after she hit me in the leg (long story) and bent the left peg also. I just hammered it straight and it works fine. It's pretty soft steel and can be cold worked without too much effort.
