Who bought a new gun lately?

[Mad Dog]

I'm trying to figure out how close Savage is to making the jump to the H series serial numbers.

If any of you guys bought a new gun this year can you gimme a partial serial number so I can see how close were getting?

If G5XXXXX was 2006 then it's gotta be getting close. Are we into the G9's yet?

Thanks for any help, Joe.

Just bought a Model 12BTCSS with a G986XX sn.

Looks like we are getting close

[Mad Dog]

Wow, ya, didn't think it was that close.

I wonder if the 4,000,000 serialed 110 thats at S.H.O.T. right now is the last of them and they start the H's after it?

hm, i just got a ft/r. now i am gonna have to dig it out and check, lol. bobn

I got a Savage 10 Precision Carbine last month and the serial# G 9294XX

[G22inSC]

Just purchased a 10FP with a serial number of ...... H006XXX.

[Bowhntr79]

Just purchased a 12bvss a week ago, serial # H004xxx

[Mad Dog]

Thanks guys, so they are into the H's! :)

So what's the significance of the "H Ser#,better quality?????????????????

[Blue Avenger]

H means they have made enough changes they think it is a new upgraded model. Similar to car model changes.
Guessing, You guys that have Hs have the new bolt release?

Couldn't it simply be that they reached G999999 and then the next one had to be H000001 ?

[Blue Avenger]

LOL we are dealing with savage marketing, hard to say.

Heck I thought you meant my Browning 20ga SXS Sidelock. I was all ready to do a little braggin. Haven't bought or built a new Savage in months. I had 3 going at once for almost a year and when they came together I felt like I needed a rest.LOLOL

Thats exactly what happened.

The only gun that hasn't been stamped with a letter is the 4,000,000 model 110 at S.H.O.T. right now, the rest follow suit as always.

I just took delivery this week of a 12btcss that has a G87XXX number?? What is the deal with that?

[Blue Avenger]

it means you got some old piece that sat somewhere for a long time. as it has surpassed its proper storage exporation you need to send it to the proper disposal site near Salt lake, UT

[cf7go]

I have an H008xxxx!

[whitetail8827]

Anyone qualified to guestimate the production of that G875XXX serial number?

[rlpointer]

I would guesstimate that Blue Avenger may be of help ::)

[Blue Avenger]

not me, I can't keep dates straight, but there are some guys here that can.

Just picked up a W W Greener built in celebration of Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee.

Don't think there is an H or G in the serial number.

But it should not be considered new.

Wow, they chambered that in 220 Swift?

The 220 Swift is of course top of the line for varmint cartridges.

But the 222 Remington, 222 Remington Magnum, and 219 Donaldson Wasp hold important positions in the field too.

I appreciate a wide variety of calibers and cartridges.

Ranging from the 14 Walker to the 585 Nyati in rifles and from 25 ACP to the 500 Linebaugh in handguns.

In shotguns, especially like the 16 and 10 gauges, but have played with most of the various gauges. Don't have too much experience with the 34 gauge or the 4-inch 28 gauge. Like the 8-bore where it can be used without prejudice.
