Interesting on date. 1941/1942 is tricky with a lot of war production, so not sure how consistently sporting guns went to. Great gun!

Any given rifle may get accepted or shipped up to a year(?) later than other guns in the same serial number range. I think I’ve seen this on every ledger page I’ve ever looked at. So the average gun on a page may get accepted and ship in July ,1910 - but some will ship months later than the others.
So is his ship date the norm for that range, or is it one of the late ones?

No guarantees about the accuracy of table B-2. It was the best (only) info I could come with. With the factory's concentration on making war materials during that time the records may have been done too quickly to trust their accuracy.
wyo1895 With Savage never say never. For a copy of my book on engraved Savage lever actions rifles send a check for $80 to; David Royal, p.o. box 1271, Pinedale, Wy., 82941. I will sign and inscribe the book for you. [email protected]
