This one came to live with me this week, added bonus were the British Proof Marks the dealer missed them and was not aware they were present, I picked up on them on omy initial inspection. Will be doing a letter on this one.

Very interesting indeed, the letter i assume is to find out how the pistol was born.
Right the letter should show the date and company the pistol was shipped to.
Cool, a view and a proof stamp.
I'd guess they were from a lend lease.
Please post the letter once you receive it. I'm interested in obtaining one for my first 1907 .32
Thanks guys, I'll give you an update when I get something back.
Hello there,
Any update on the historical letter?
I finally sent off a letter request, hope to have the letter soon will post once I have it. It could have been sent to the UK to be used in WWI or for private use.
The factory letter won't be able to say why it went across, it will just say what it left the factory as, the date it was accepted and where it was shipped to when it left the factory.
Well it took me a while to get around to it but I have the letter on this British Proof marked Model 1907. From the factory to the warehouse September 6, 1914 The pistol shipped on October 8th 1914 to John G. Rollins & Son of England.

That's neat to know that they had a retailer in England that sold the Savage pistols.
