Is on page 54 of The August 2019 issue of The Anerican Rifleman. Hope she is ok and did retire. I was Savage Warranty repair station for Hawaii and the Pacific area for many years- now retired- and it was a pleasure to work with her, she knew everything and every body. Mel Chung
" Hope she is ok and did retire."
There goes another piece of Savage history.
Good to hear from you Mel.

That's a typo, I meant to say I hope she did NOT retire..
I sent her a card thru Savage but never heard back.
I hope to see her again, someday.
Is Wisconsin Savage having another Savage Fest soon?

Good article. Thanks Mel!
Sounds like the current Savage Arms is doing well.
I think Arthur would be pleased.
I recently acquired Model 11 .223 & Model 12 22-250 varmint rifles.
You??

I just talked to Effie this afternoon at Savage Arms. 8-12-19
SWS:Nothing new in Savage or related items. I'm trying to sell off excess guns as I am not running a museum. Have one more Savage 755a to repair, has broken off capture screw and hard to install mag cap due to distortion.
No Savage Fest this year, eh?
stanme: I'll try to call Effie tomorrow.
Thanks, Mel
I ordered two "Custom" left hand Savage rifles through Effie Sullivan in the late 90's.....she was a an absolute gem to work with.
doctor Encore:
she is a gem to work with and she is back! She knows what part goes on what gun and then some. too bad she wont be able to go to shot show in January. The Savage collection is still downstairs: washing machines, lawn mowers and guns, lots of guns, wow! Mel

800 370 0708.......I dealt with her myself 15+ years ago.......
She has sorta of an accent from what I remember ?
Even though I care not a whit for modern Savages, I'm tempted to call her just to talk. Is she married??!
Did she have acces to the R&D room?
