From the very beginning Savage Arms has been a different kind of company. A history of innovation begun in 1894 by Arthur Savage with the introduction of the first "hammerless" lever action rifle continues today with Ron Coburn's revolutionary Snail® System.
Our patented Wet Snail Trap has been used by all major firearms, ammunition manufacturers and demanding law enforcement agencies for over 10 years. Why?
Quite simply, it works! Have you ever walked into a range where the air smelled like lead or there was excessive lead dust at the trap? You won't find this in a range with a Wet Snail Trap. The Snail Trap's roots are in the firearms manufacturing environment, where range personnel must routinely have their blood lead levels tested in accordance with OSHA requirements. When used properly, there have been no reported cases of elevated blood lead levels where a Wet Snail Trap was installed.
Our system has one of the lowest maintenance requirements for any bullet trap on the market. Not only does this result in lower operating costs, it maximizes 'range availability' for training and revenue generation.
Savage believes that there is no great value without quality. You'll find both in every product they produce, now and for the next hundred years, as well.
