savage 64

Savage Model 64 series is a semi-automatic .22 LR rifle made by Savage Arms in Canada. It operates on a simple blowback action. It is marketed to beginning shooters, small-game hunters, and budget-minded target shooters. It is one of the more popular hunting and target-shooting rifles in the United States due to its accuracy, use of the popular and inexpensive .22 long rifle ammunition, and its low price.It is unusual among semiautomatic 22s, and traditional (non-bullpup) semi-automatic rifles in general, in that it is available in a true left-handed version (left handed safety, charging handle and eject -presumably wrong handed twist). Some consider this particularly helpful for new, especially young shooters, as it leaves them free to focus on more important matters to learn.The "64 series" has sold under [combination of manufacturers' names listed above] [62, 64 and 954] [one or more letters]. It was also sold as Sears Roebuck & Co. Model 6C. Although often unexpressed in speech, as a "64" it is almost always followed by a single series letter."64" without a letter indicates the first year of manufacturer only. That version had a plastic magazine. It is considered undesirable. It was followed by the 64B.The Model 64 Savage has a full floating barrel, standard. It is considered by many users to be more accurate "out of the box" than some more expensive rifles.In 2019, Savage designed a variant of the Model 64 designed for easy disassembly and reassembly. This variant is called the Model 64 Takedown. The Model 64 Takedown is only available in matte-black with synthetic stock. It comes out of the box drilled and tapped for scope mounts. The Model 64 Takedown is manufactured at Savage's facility in Canada.
