Bell and Carlson stock request................Long Action M40?

[toddcdozer]

Done. Used to live south of Dodge in Ashland and my friends mom still works for B&C. Hope to see them build a LA stock.

Sounds great except for the blind mag, Really? Center feed factory mag would be far better IMHO.

I see a lot more blind mag rigs on the pawnshop market which is all I buy. I would guess there are more on the market since they were in production for much longer. Just a guess.

As much as I would rather build the LA with factory DM (I think the center feed guys could buy components and switch over), it appears we are going to start with the old stagger feed first simply based on shear numbers. If Savage would stop changing it up every few years it would certainly help. Will keep this updated, now to get to making chips!

This is fantastic news. I'll be the first in line.

[Gunner75]

DO NOT PHONE, check in on our website. Savageshooters.com info only. The new #1018 (Description below) will be available shortly. Finished the mold last week. Just gotta finish up some loose ends and it will be complete. I would guess we will open up ordering by Feb 1st if not a week or few days earlier.


"M40 style"
-Long Action
-Heavy Barrel
-Blind Mag
-Stagger Feed


Even though I have a "list" to work from, what would you all like to see next? I'll be at SHOT and one of the first items on my list is to catch up with my good friend at Savage to talk numbers (production numbers on rifles). I'm still thinking a LA M40 with factory detachable mag would be great but not sure numbers support it. Guess I'd be looking to Savage up one of our new adjustable styles after that. Thoughts?

We NEED a LA stock for later centerfeed BDM Savages. I have 2 in the safe with the accustock that I'm just not happy with, so much so that they just stay there because I don't have good options to build off of them without spending $800 on a custom stock. There are tons of them out there, and I know guys who would love to replace the stocks on their long range hunters as well.

What I'm thinking is make this with options you list but in CF.
You then can sell it to both CF and SF owners.
Offering only in SF requires work to install CF magazine components.
SF (attached box) will drop into CF stocks (blind mag) no modifications needed.

I would love a left hand short action dbm bottom bolt release with a sporter channel

I bet you couldn't make a Target/Comp model for both long and short actions fast enough...

[Gunner75]

Short is next on the list.....guess we will see.

[Mthomas90]

I second the need for a M40 in a long action, top bolt release, DBM.

any plans on making the savage sporter style dbm in a short action?

[Gunner75]

[kimberkook]

Congrats! It looks good. I have three of the sporters (#2980) and I'm sold on B&C quality. Keep up the good work :-)

[shooterfpga]
