3/11/22 – This is a scarce example of a U.S. marked Stevens Savage Model 77E riot shotung, manufactured about 1964-1965. Beginning in 1963, the U.S. government purchased a total of 69,097 Model 77E riot shotguns from the Savage Arms Corporation for issue to the South Vietnamese Army; however, they were also widely used by U.S. Army and Marine units in Vietnam. Records indicate that 65,724 of the 69,097 Model 77E shotguns purchased under government contract were issued to the Republic of Vietnam or other allied forces. As a result, very few Model 77E shotguns returned from Vietnam, with estimates at only a few thousand. They have a shorter stock than other U.S. military shotguns as they were modified to accommodate South Vietnamese soldiers. They were also the first U.S. combat shotgun equipped with a rubber recoil pad. Military models are parkerized with sling swivels and wooden stocks. The right side of the receiver is ‘U.S.’ marked, and ‘P’ proofs are present on barrel and receiver. The gun is original and correct and there isn’t much finish loss, but there is oxidation and patina on most of the metal surfaces. Excellent wood condition with no notable cracks or chips. Bore shows some dirt and signs of use. It would benefit from a cleaning but it should still shoot very well. A canvas sling is included.
