Savage 219 Single Shot Rifles / Differences between the Savage 219 and Savage 24 frames
« Last post by The Ry Guy on November 27, 2024, 02:32:15 PM »
Out of curiosity more than anything, did Savage use the same material (looks to be cast on my 219 in 30-30) and similar design (hinge pin diameter, barrel locking lug etc.) for making the receivers for both the 219 and Model 24?They look similar to me in pictures, but I've never held a Model 24 to compare to my 219.

Curious because I see that the 24 could be had in .223 and that's a fairly high pressure round, you'd think it'd be hard on a cast frame such as these single shots are.

Thoughts anyone?

As of today, October 30, I have received no reply from them.  I am disappointed in this company for not responding.  My daddy always taught me to answer all mail, and return all phone calls.  If he were alive today, I am sure he would add “emails” to the list.

Hope that they can come up with something.

Today, I sent this email to them.  Cross your fingers and hope they have found this information.

Do you have historical records for the following Savage/Stevens firearms?  They were made from 1919 to the late 1960's.

Savage Model 219 Single Shot Rifle, Savage 220 Single Shot Shotgun, Savage 101 Single Shot Pistol, and the Stevens No. 10 Single Shot Pistol.

I have written books on these 4 firearms, and I would like to advise my readers in future printings, if this information is available.  My web site is savagesingleshots.com

Thank you for your help!  Best Wishes, Garnett Stancil, Valley Grande, AL

The Savage records were brand new to The Center of the West at that time.
They have since improved their understanding of what they have.

I doubt records exist at all for Savage 101, but worth a try. Jessica/Center of the West may simply let you know whether or not records exist without charge.

An example of the worse stock repair I have ever seen!  This is Model 220 Trap with a 34" barrel.

Other Savage, Stevens, & Fox Firearms / Re: Stevens Model 94 series 28 gauge age

Thanks Garnett

I answered my question by buying a Stevens 94C 28 gauge.

The stamp on the right side of the receiver in the small circle is 4F and would make it a 1954 gun.

It is in very nice shape for a 70 year old gun.
I’ll post a picture or two later.

My son, Trey, posted these photos of my display this past weekend at the Alabama Gun Collectors Assn. summer show.  I first joined the club when I was 20 years old.  This is the first time I have won "Best of Show".  The display had 4 "US" marked long guns, 3 elaborately engraved items, and some other hard to find Savage and Stevens firearms.  I really appreciate the honor of the award.
