Savage/Anschutz 22lr ?

[mousegunfan]

I have been searching for a bolt action 22. Today I found it. It's a used Savage/Anschutz mark11 y, wood stock, 24" barrel made in Canada. It looks brand new. It had no papers or info of any kind. It's also left handed which is why I feel very happy about this.. I had pretty much settled on having to get a right hand bolt gun. I can't find info on this gun. It has a stainless bolt and trigger. I don't know if it came that way or was added. If anyone can tell me about my new gun I would appreciate it. Thanks

That one is a stumper. I've seen Savage/Anschutz Model 10's, but never heard of a Mark11. And made in Canada? West germany is usually the rule on those. Unless it's a Anschutz/Savage, in which case Savage made it, but that would be Chicoppee, or Westfield, Mass, not Canada.
I'll see what I can dig up.

It might be a Lakefield, the were the folks that originally designed the Mark II. Savage bought them and continued to build Mark IIs.

My Lakefield has an Anschutz barrel.

It has made in Canada on it. Also it has the Savage, Ma stamped on the other side, as they must have imported it. I'm curious what year it was made. I've been searching google and can't find much.

Edit: It states made in Canada imported by Savage Arms. A poster at rimfirecental states it's an old target rifle at least 25 years old.

Its most likely a lakefield then.

I got this with an internet search of someone searching about Savage/Anschutz, seemed to make sense. Although I can't find anything about my model.

"between the period of 1963 - 1981 Savage manufactured rifles using the Savage model 110 action for sale in Europe and these were called Anschutz-Savage rifles. In that period Savage manufactured rifles for sale in the US and these rifles used the much more desirable Anschutz model 64 action and these rifles were called Savage-Anschutz. I've talked to several people who are much more knowledgable in this subject than myself and they all verified this as fact. So, if you have a "Savage-Anschutz" marked rifle, you have a reallly good, and rare one. Hope this helps................Van

Can't do a picture now. Just Canada, no town.

If you go here and look at post #11, it looks just like the bottom gun. http://www.rimfirecentral.com/forums/showthread.php?p=3447529#post3447529

I have a Savage mark II 22lr bolt action that was made in Lakefield, Ontario Ca. Maybe the same factory?

Is it also an Anschutz? Does it only say made in Canada, or Lakefield,Ontario Canada on the gun?

 

[Ron Swanson]

Its not an Anschutz. It just has a varmit style birch stock.

 

[mousegunfan]

Ron, do you have any extraction problems. Cci blazers and mini mags will not extract, non of them. But federal AM22 worked just fine.

 

[Ron Swanson]

I have never had an extraction issue with any type of ammo.
