What Savage Arms does

Savage Arms, Inc. is a privately-held American firearms manufacturer founded in 1894 and headquartered in Westfield, Massachusetts. The company designs, manufactures, and sells centerfire rifles, rimfire rifles, shotguns, handguns, and suppressors under its Model 110, Impulse, Axis, Renegauge, 1911, Stance XR, Rascal, and AccuCan product families. According to 2022 ATF data, Savage was the second-largest U.S. rifle manufacturer by unit volume, producing 608,579 rifles. Its competitive position is anchored by proprietary manufacturing technologies—most notably the user-adjustable AccuTrigger (with its AccuRelease safety blade), AccuFit V2 adjustable stock system, factory blueprinting of actions, and button-rifled precision barrels—and by partnerships with Proof Research for carbon fiber-wrapped barrels and MDT for chassis systems. Product pricing spans roughly $179 (Rascal entry-level) to over $3,600 (110 Ultralite Elite V2 premium carbon fiber), with suppressors priced $449-$999.
