Stevens was founded in 1864 in Chicopee Falls, Massachusetts. Savage in Utica, New York, in 1894. Savage purchased the Stevens plant and name in 1920 and continued to make guns with the Stevens name in the Chicopee Falls facility until the late 1940's. The Stevens line was discontinued in 1991, but revived in 1998 or 1999 on a few "commemorative" models.
The Stevens Savage 87T was manufactured primarily from 1949 to 1955. This semi-automatic rifle was part of the Stevens line of firearms and was popular for its versatility and design. Production ceased in the mid-1950s, making it a collectible item among firearms enthusiasts today.

As of my last update in October 2023, Savage Arms Company does not maintain detailed records for firearms manufactured under the Stevens or Riverside Arms Co. names, as these brands were acquired and integrated into Savage's operations many years ago. Consequently, obtaining specific information about individual firearms from these brands can be challenging. For historical inquiries, collectors often consult firearm reference books or reach out to specialized forums and organizations.
