Savage Rifle Date of Manufacture
Several months ago, I purchased a used Savage 111 rifle.
The Serial number is E9825XX.
When I called Savage customer service to find out a manufacturing date, they stated they did not hold any records on that rifle, but I should write to the following individual and pass him all the information I had about this rifle. He responds to all inquiries if a SASE is enclosed.
John Callaghan
PO Box 82
Southhampton, MA 01073
Apparently Mr. Callaghan is the repository of Savage information.
About 10 days later I received his reply in the mail. What he was able to tell me is that my particular rifle was manufactured in March, 1989.
He was unable to provide any additional detailed information because serial number records containing details of items manufactured between January 1969 and 1995 were turned over to the BATF by Savage.
I thought I would pass this information along, instead of keeping it to myself, as it may be useful to someone else.
Cheers,
