Anybody know when they will be available
Thanks

Last I spoke with the folks at Savage I was told sometime in January, but typically their estimated times around about 2 months off so I'd say late Feb or early March. I'll be talking to them again later next week so hopefully I'll be able to get an updated timeframe.

Definitely keep us updated, there are lots of people interested in the left handed models!
Hopefully i will be able to get them in Canada at the same time as they are available in the US

Talked to the folks at Savage today and was told the LH Axis models will start shipping sometime next month (Feb).

Great news lefty axis. I already bought a righty .223 real easy to work the bolt while shooting from a bipod. nice ltwt sporter. i replaced the trig with rifle basic standard unit. the pull is no longer street legal and works great. trigger was purchased for a left handed deluxe model from the 70's but wouldnt fit. very nice in axis. the factory unit was not that bad in the axis better than the deluxe.

I'am probably going to buy a Tikka.I wanted a lightweight detachable magazine .223 and I need it by May.Savage Axis was January then February now April then it will be July then who knows? Wouldn't be the first time a manufactors announced something and never made them.

If you look at the chamberings they are showing for both right and left-hand.

It only species a RH model for the regular axis but there is a left hand youth model. Maybe I missed something.
