Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Regarded worldwide as the absolute gold standard of smallbore accuracy, the Anschütz Match 54 action has captured more Olympic, World Cup, and national championship medals than virtually all other competitive rimfire platforms combined. During the 1960s and 1970s, J.G. Anschütz of Ulm, West Germany partnered with Savage Arms to import a refined sporting version of their legendary target rifle to the American market: the Savage-Anschütz Model 54 Sporter. Built around the oversized, ultra-rigid Model 54 receiver with its rapid-lock-time cylindrical bolt, dual locking lugs, and match-grade single-stage trigger, this rifle translated Olympic benchrest accuracy into a handy field-ready platform. Styled with classic European luxury, it features a 24-inch match barrel, factory open-folding sights, an 11mm grooved receiver with non-glare stippling, and an exquisite walnut stock with skip-line checkering, a raised rollover cheekpiece, and rich rosewood accents, including an inlaid blonde maple diamond on the grip cap.
This specific example is an authentic West German-manufactured Savage-Anschütz Model 54 Sporter chambered in .22 Long Rifle, bearing serial number 814556 A stamped cleanly on the receiver alongside crisp German Ulm proof marks. It features a 24-inch match barrel, factory iron sights, a grooved/tapped receiver, a detachable magazine, and a deluxe skip-line checkered walnut stock. The factory original high-gloss blued finish presents in very attractive, beautifully preserved condition throughout, showing deep mirror reflections across the receiver and barrel flats with razor-sharp factory stampings and only minor, superficial handling traces. The figured European walnut stock displays rich amber and chocolate wood grain with crisp, defined skip-line checkering diamonds and intact rosewood caps, showing only light, honest handling marks consistent with careful recreational use.
