    Savage 99 - Date of Manufacture


    Hi All,

    I’m new to this forum. I am purchasing a Savage Model 99 from a friend and I’m looking to determine its date of manufacture. I reviewed some of the other threads on this subject and from what I can see, the gun was manufactured in 1954. Just to be sure, I wanted to post part of the serial number and the lever code.

    Savage 99 serial # 7558XX. Lever code 3F
    The rifle is in great condition and has a bullet counter and according to my friend, it has a schnabel foregrip.

    I’m grateful for any information/thoughts you may have.

    Thank you

    The 3F would indicate 1954.
