Patents are probably, at least often, applied for after the item has been developed. You often seem a new item marked "patent pending". Maybe Savage had already developed the cocking indicator and used it on that rifle but then again maybe not. Gene talks about the delay between production and getting the item patented in the Friday quiz post.
