All Savage firearms manufactured after December 1968 have a serial number which will have a letter prefix.

This was done to clearly identify which firearms were manufactured after the Gun Control Act of 1968 went into effect. The graphic below outlines the starting and ending serial number for each year of production from 1969 thru the beginning of 2012 (the most recent we have data for).

Since this information is readily offered here we will not respond to any requests to date Savage firearms whose serial number has a letter prefix. If it's newer than what's listed in the table below you can get a general idea of when it was made by visiting, but if you want something more specific you will have to contact Savage.

Like the others wrote, Jerico. Give us the rifle's serial number and, if available, its Lever Boss Code ('LBC'). And one or several of us will probably be able to give you the information you seek. It is generally felt that the LBC is 'THE' most accurate way to determine the year of manufacture of the Savage Model 99s.

However, without the LBC, determing the year of manufacture gets a bit tougher due to an inter-mingling of various series of the rifle's serial numbers in some years. If you wish to know the rifle's value and/or model, we'll need to know its condition and features along with the LBC and serial number. Pictures always help too. Strength & Honor.

My dad has a pretty serious collection of 99s and is planning to start selling them off pretty soon. I need an education, as he wants me to do the selling.

(He has about 40 - 50 99s, most of which are pre-WWII, but he has about seven that are newer.). No 'O's or 'Q's, and the letters went up to X (1970). Though not all 1970 rifles have them, I don't think. Rebus azasha zhauabimen.

Serial numbers aren't public, and anybody is free to start gathering them. Not sure that anybody wants to publish their sets. The post-1970 numbers are all mixed up with other Savage rifles, so it's not 99 specific. I'm sure you'll get lots of offers to help.
