  • The Norwich Gun Industry
    salzer_40_47 2/14/05 3:17 PM Page 40 The Norwich Gun Industry Dick Salzer New England and, especially, Connecticut have been and remain the center of the American gun industry ever since the days of the American Revolution. Gun makers orig- inally were attracted to Connecticut because of that state’s many assets—year-round water power, a skilled industrial labor base, good ports and rail lines, and proximity to the major population centers of New York and Boston—all of these contributed to that centralization. These factors were especially prevalent at Norwich. The City of Norwich was founded in 1659. By the time of the American Revolution, it had grown to become one of the 10 largest cities in the Colonies.1 It was richly endowed with all of those assets desirable in a manufacturing site, not the least of which was the confluence of the Shetucket and Yantic Rivers, which merged at Norwich to form the navi- gable Thames River. As a large city by the standards of the breadth of the Norwich arms industry during its golden day, it offered sources of capital, a diverse population of years. skilled workers, support industries, and easy access to the This presentation will focus largely on the period New York and Boston markets through its sheltered port starting in the 1840’s when conditions were exactly right and rail lines. for the incubation of the arms industry.

  • National Firearm Trigger Guard Facts
    National Firearm Facts: • Firearms are second to motor vehicles as the leading cause of death from injury in the U.S. (Public Health Data Watch, August 2000, Public Health - Seattle & King County) • 60.9% of firearms used in school-associated homicides or suicides came from the perpetrator’s home or from a friend or relative of the perpetrator. (Source of Firearms Used by Students in School - Associated Violent Deaths - United States, 1992-1999, MMWR Weekly, March 7, 2003/52(09); 169-172) • Nearly 170,000 children and youth lived in households with loaded and unlocked firearms in 2002, according to researchers at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “It is important to identify, implement and evaluate effective methods to prevent firearm-related morbidity and mortality – from counseling youth and adults with depressive symptoms, to evaluating firearm safety technologies, to a variety of safe storage options,” the researchers conclude. Safe Storage of Guns & Ammunition Reduces Risk of Firearm Injury Risk to Youth Unloading and locking guns and ammunition in separate locations is associated with a significant decrease in firearm injuries in homes with children and teenagers, according to a study by researchers from the Harborview Injury Prevention and Research Center of the University of Washington. TIPS FOR PARENTS: It is normal for young children to be curious and explore in drawers, cabinets and closets. They are also fascinated with firearms. A recent study showed that three out of four children who are 8 to 12 years old will handle a firearm they find. About half of those will pull the trigger.

    Universal Match Grade Trigger Upgrade For Savage® Actions Install Guide for Non-Accutrigger Models Phone: (704) 499-3087 • Fax: (704) 573-3768 • PO Box 49064 • Charlotte NC 28277 Required Tools: ● 5/32 Hex Wrench ● Flat Head Screw Driver ● Threat Locker ● White Lithium Grease Step 1: Getting Started First, ensure the firearm is unloaded and free of all ammunition. If your rifle has a detachable magazine, remove the magazine and set it aside. Remove the bolt and set it aside as well. Step 2: Remove The Stock On the underside of the factory stock you will find three hex head screws. The two screws closer to the muzzle hold the action into the stock. The third screw attaches the trigger guard to the stock. If you have an aftermarket stock the hex key size may be different than the standard 5/32”. Using the appropriate hex key, remove the two action screws. Step 3: Remove the Sear To remove the sear first locate the sear reset spring. Hold it in place with your thumb while you push the sear pivot pin out with the head of the screwdriver. Note: Older Savage rifles have a small bushing located inside the sear spring. The SAV-2 comes with a replacement spring that does not require the bushing. This will make installation easier. Step 4: Remove the Factory Trigger Frame With the sear pivot pin removed, the sear, trigger frame, and safety can all be removed from the action. The safety can then be removed from the trigger frame. This will free the safety detent pin.
