A buddy brought a flea market find over for me to see...Savage .22-.410. Receiver looks care hardened...decent shape/decent wood...overall a good to very good gun. Any markings or other clues to determine age is appreciated...


Value range ?

    In 1950, Stevens stopped making the 22-410, and Savage introduced the same gun as the Model 24 (from the wikipedia article). The exact markings may help narrow it down.

    I used to recruit for the NRA until they sold us down the river (again!) in Heller v. DC. See my auctions (if any) under username henryreilly

    NSN = pre-1968

    Case-colored receiver I am guessing late 1950s/early '60s. Would have to see it; sometimes you can get a 'feel' for a gun just by looking at and handling it.

    There should be a oval with 2 numbers or 1 number and a letter stamped on the gun the letter is the year works on all models even the guns made for Sears

    Usually, it is behind the hinge pin on the barrel(s) or ahead of the trigger guard on the bottom of the frame.

    I think the number is just a inspection number as far as I know only the letter has anything to do with Date
