I don't think Savage was "cutting corners" in the 1930s as much they were struggling to stay afloat during the Great Depression. Don't forget that had it not been for Olin, Winchester would have completely gone out of business during that time. Economic depressions are tough and keep your fingers crossed we don't end up in another one.
