When did Savage start making left handed bolt actions? I've looked everywhere but can't find an answer. I thought maybe one of you genius types would know. And if you can get older ones, how does quality stack up against current production?

The 110's were offered in left handed actions from the beginning, so what does that make it? 1958?

Thanks, ROMAC. As to my second question - what was quality like then versus now?

This is my custom 1959 lefty. I'd say the quality is high.

Something I have always wondered about is, how come you never see the older 110s for sale? I have encountered maybe 4 or 5 in the last few years.

ROMAC: Magnificent. Who did the wood?
Jericho: That is what I am wondering, too. Why haven't I seen older 110s for sale?

They probably didn't sell too many, so they don't come up for sale very often.
