Savage Arms Expands Line of Suppressor-Ready Rimfire Rifles

Savage® Arms continues to offer a broad lineup of suppressor-ready rifles for shooters and hunters who want to reduce firearm noise at the range or in the field. Savage expands its line of suppressor-ready rimfire firearms with three new rifles: Model 93 FV-SR in 22 WMR, Model 93R17 FV-SR in 17 HMR, and Model 64 FV-SR in 22 LR. These new models give hunters and plinkers accurate rifle platforms ready to accept after-market suppressors with ease.

SUFFIELD, CT - The popularity of suppressors continues its rapid climb as more shooters and hunters see the benefit of reducing firearm noise at the range or in the field.
