I'ts been a while since I was on the site, but has anyone who ordered a "last run" Savage from RW received it yet? His site says Savage keeps pushing out the date.

RWs website said the factory was shipping this month or next. From what I understand Savage has said they will do limited production of the 10ML-II in the future. At first the said they were discontinuing it, then said they were doing one last production run and then came out and said they would do limited production. How this will work I do not know. Most Savage rifles are sold thru distributors who order hundreds of rifles at a pop. If the distributors decide there is enough demand they may decide to order some. How many it would take to do a production run I do not know but it would probly be like 500 rifles. They may become a "custom shop" rifle from the way it sounds. They were saying something like a 18 week lead time if you ordered one in the future.

Savage's final production run has been on the market for some time now. Gunbroker has a log list of them for sale. Zen

Do not let them BS you into believing the rifle they are selling is a rifle from the last production run. I had a guy try to tell me a SS laminate was from the last run and it was 2008 or 2009 production. I think Savage and the distributors are cleaning out the warehouses. I still see NIB ML10-Is pop up.

while the blued models are still numerious the stainless models are getting hard to come by. Guys that buy new guns need to be aware that they will have the new style barrel nut (smooth)/ large shank barrel/ and the late hole spacing on the stock. any mods done to these guns as well as the later models with said nut will need to take this into account when ordering stocks or barrels.....

Thanks for the great info. I was wondering if anyone who had ordered thru Randy had received their gun.
