Savage No4 (T) Register

[Micheal Doyne]

Hi all,

Firstly apologies if this already exists, I did a quick search but couldn’t find a list of savage No4 t, what I did find was a surprising number of people telling me they don’t exist. A renouned gun smith who is no stranger to enfields recently said he had never seen a real save No4(t).

Having recently acquired one, I am keen to reach them, initially starting by building but a list of existing rifles.

If you are happy to please reply with:
Rifle S/N (or as much as you are happy to share)
Scope S/N
Notes, e.g. current state, precision scope numbers, if it is a known Less Scope.
And a photo or two, particularly of any conversion markings.

With this data

Maybe if update is sufficient this may become a sticky?

Is there a scope number on the wrist?

Is there a scope number on the wrist?

No--wood is not original, though the cheekpiece seems to be.
