I have a 1943 vintage Savage that I am going to give to a person who has given a lot to many but who does not have a lot of spare resources for himself. He is a former Navy Corpsman who was assigned to the Marine Corps. he very well educated and is very interested and knowledgeable about military history so I know he will appreciate the history behind These rifles. Now to my question: Is there any other information that can be found by serial number on one such as likely issue date or probable theater of operation? I assume that most Savage built rifles went to the European Theater Of operations but I have made assumptions before and we all know how that works out. The more information I can give him relating to this rifle the better.
Thank you for your time.Information
