I didn't catch the longer brl as stated in your original posting. The longer brl and serial number sounds like a Model 1919 in a sporter stock. I doubt that it came that way from the factory.

Pull the butt plate and see what serial is on the butt plate and stock. A lot of the time the stock and action don't match as there was not much fitting requires but might help identify the time period of the wood.

As for the dual firing pin bolt, it was only used on the 1919 and 1922 with serials before 25,000. (Both models had separate serial numbering and both started over at model change at 25,000)

The opened port area on your rifle would be correct for the serial. The smaller port was only on very early 1919's and maybe some 1922's (I have not seen one).

I have had 4 1922's, all with the numbers on the stocks & butt plates matching the receiver - I have had several of the 1919's of different vintages, and 23-A's & 23-AA', and have never had any of those with matching numbers. Matching numbers seems to just be a 1922 Sporter thing.

My highest 1922 is serial 18,08x, lowest is 11,4xx.

I have never tried to put a 1919 NRA barrel/receiver into a 1922 stock, I would assume a slightly different contour due to the longer barrel if the diameter at the muzzle is close.

1808x is a higher serial than I expected to see. The sales records only show less than 16000 sold. Might have been some jumps in the serial numbers as seen with other models.

I measured the muzzle on a 1922 and a couple of 1919's. Looks like they have the same taper as the 1919 have a smaller diameter muzzle

Rick, I also had/have 16,13x and 16,61x. I would assume serial numbers started at 1000. The one in the 18,000's one was my first, I have a note in the records that all numbers matched so I don't think I misread a '3' as an '8' because I looked at the stock & butt plate too - I will try to remember to double check it sometime.

Yes had one reported in the 16xx range but the owner died before I could find out if it had a large or small ejection port. What is yours? Is it scooped out bigger area or a small squared hole where the cartridge ejects from the rifle?

The highest serial reported has been in the 18xxx range. There were more produced than reported in some of the info books. Guessing the serial started at 1000.

Took a look at my Savage model 1922 and yes all the number match. None of my 19s or 23s do. Must be just a 1922 thing. The serial number is 2002. Also anyone here in 24 hourcampfire land know of a #5 rear receiver sight for sale? Either the old one hole type or later version with two any help would be very appreciated.

That would be my guess as well........ Seeing as how I own one. And in march of 2012 I was posting a "what is it?" thread here also trying to find out what it was. And Mad Dog assisted in the identification of mine as well . So a big THANK YOU to him....... I've still got it and it's a great shooter; and mine's got 7863 for a serial number. Thanks again, Mad Dog.
