AKA Pocket Pistol, Varmit Rifle, Bicycle Pistol Left-handed firearms Speciality guns are the primary focus of Savage Arms' business. All of its product offerings fulfill a special need.
Weapons designed for left-handed shooters are a good example of this. Savage Arms sells 18 different firearms for left-handed shooters with products designed for big game, law enforcement, target competition and predator hunting, including left-handed slug shotguns and bolt-action and semi-auto rimfire rifles. Savage generally releases its products as right-handed models with a left-handed version to follow a few years later. Models not available with a stock left-handed version can usually be made to order. Savage is able to convert most of its products to left-handed versions because most of its receivers, bolt releases, and safeties are designed symmetrically. Savage is able to easily convert its products' designs by changing the bolt assembly and moving the ejection port to the opposite side but most its competitors have to design completely new receivers.
Savage's machine tools are likewise setup to quickly and easily switch from producing right-handed products to left-handed ones and back again. Discontinued products Since Savage is one of the older American still in commercial production, it would be difficult to list the number of models no longer in production made by Savage under its own name and under for retail outlets.

Best Answer: You're looking at somewhere between 1937 and the early 80's on that model 94. The series M, some folks will guess at mid 70's, but that's nothing but a pure guess. Series numbers on that gun simply meant what the gun left the factory as, not a date code. For example, series C guns were still being sold in the 70's.
Not even Savage could ever produce a date ref for those. Heck, I collect old single shots exactly like that and.I. can't even tell you.
If yours has a serial number, it's post 1968.that's as close as you can really get. As I said, they were produced for close to fifty years.NOT one year only as JD said. The 94 was the most common shotgun Savage Stevens produced as anyone that knows old shotguns can tell you. A 'one year only' gun would be exceptionally rare.and NOT have 'no collector value'. The firearm was in fact extremily common.and even though it is a good gun, the commonality makes it low priced. Your Savage-J. Stevens-Springfield Single Shot Break Action Shotgun was manufactured in 1929 ( 1 Year ONLY) It was manufactured by Savage, but sold under 8 different Model Numbers and at least 4 brand names including Savage, J.
Stevens Arms Company,Springfield Arms,and Revelation. It was a mass produced Shotgun, but exact production totals are unknown. It was manufactured in 12 gauge,16,20,28 and 410 Gauge and was made in 28' and 30' Barrel Lengths. Since it was a mass produced firearm it has no real collectors value. Tell us some more.
