I remember watching this video when I was a kid and I was searching for it about 2years ago. Just stumbled upon it now. Brought back some good memories thanks for sharing. God bless
One standard product? Very interesting, considering their resources at the time. And look where they are today? Still in business. Just like Armalite and Colt, making something is one thing, but mass producing the same thing (to exceptional standards) is a different skill to master. Good on them!
Very nice video. Those machining centers certainly put a lot of classically trained machinists, tool & die makers, tool makers, etc out of business. There is a video called "Colonial Gunsmith" on TH-cam, about an hour long narrated by David Brinkley, a re-enactment of a Colonial Williamsburg gun maker making a flint-lock rifle. Very good video which shows how it was done once upon a time.
I very much hope you still own this rife Zach. Not very many pelican say they still have there fathers savage 110 that he made himself at the savage factory. And have the video to show it. Love the videos buddy.
Zach I hope you still have this rifle that your father built. Thats a once in a lifetime opportunity. And what sentimental value.
Nice to see old Savage Factory videos
What a great historical video, thanks for posting.
Your welcome.
love savage!

Your welcome, Peace be with you!
I love this. Thanks for uploading it.
Awesome
This is a very interesting video of the factory manufacturing process with Fred doing the actual work...
I'm proud to say my nephew works for savage arms and has my old tools and tool box.
2 words: "That's Awesome"
Great video!

my gosh id love to go to savage and make my own rifle
It sure would be a great experience, I wonder if they still offer that possibility, I doubt it.
My nephew works for them and I'm going to have him personally oversee the making of my next rifle or pistol. Can't wait.
"stock does not really affect the accuracy of a rifle" you got to be fuking kidding me.
You must be a tactical range commando?
