you may find some info at the savage arms website.This was the maker of your shotgun,savage/stevens.
The Stevens Savage Model 124 12 gauge shotgun was made from 1949 to 1954. The serial number will signify the actual year of manufacture.
no i think it was made by savage arms
Savage arms and j. Stevens
If it has both the Stevens and Savage names it was made sometime after the mid 1940's. If it has no serial number, it was made before 1969.
Stevens/Savage used the Riverside name from about 1920 to 1945.
They were made for a long time. If it has a serial number, it is post-1968.
The best I can do is say that the savage/stevens model 94 shotgun series were made between the years 1926-1945 with a total production of 934,000 made.
The stevens model 9478 shotgun was made between 1978-1985.
Most likely isn't one these shotguns were over 50 years old and were made before there was a requirement for background checks/ serial numbers.
These shotguns were made by savage/stevens between the years 1986-1989.There was no accurate records kept of the serial numbers as to year of production.
