The patents are all in George Lewis' name, he had a lot of patents for Stevens, some for complete guns and many for improvements. I have not found any patents that were assigned to J. Stevens after Savage Arms purchased them, all appear to have been assigned to Savage Arms after the mid-1920's and none from George Lewis, he seems to no longer have been with either company.
G. S. Lewis even designed the rear sight - I had not looked close at the rear sight, I thought it was only adjustable for windage, now from the patent drqawings I see it has an elevation adjustment... but I don't see how that can be adjusted without changing the windage, something I will have to play around with.
