Not to hijack, but in the spirit of safety, IIRC they were recalled by Savage due to discharging on safe if dropped in the horizontal position. The E is the receiver designation I believe. I have had one since 1980 with no issue.
Just something I remember.

I was incorrect on AD with safety engaged, it was with safety off and dropped.
