I was just putting my Savage Health-Motor away and noticed something..

Ithink all the cases for these have the same brand of latches on the cases - Eagle Lock Co., Terryville Conn. Eagle Lock Co. was a very large company manufacturing locks and latches.

I think the Savage Health-Motor came out in late 20's. I'd say a pretty good likelihood that the Health-Motor case is also a Winship made case considering Winship was close to Savage Arms in Utica, and we know Savage was contracting with Winship at the time. No emblems or name in it that I can see, though.

Just another piece of trivia to see if anything ever pops up to clarify for sure.
