Savage Arms Introduces Its First Semi-Automatic Shotgun: RENEGAUGEU.S.A. –-(Ammoland.com)- Savage Arms, makers of the most trusted hunting and target rifles in the United States, is proud to introduce RENEGAUGE. The new American-made semiautomatic 12 gauge shotguns are built for field use, offer hunters and competitors a new standard for both fit and function, and include several patented parts and designs—including the Dual Regulating Inline Valve (D.R.I.V.) gas system. “RENEGAUGE is unlike any other semi-automatic shotgun, and demonstrates our commitment to innovate as an independent company,” said Al Kasper, President and CEO. “This project has been in the works for years because we wanted to enter a new category in a big way. The team in place now did an amazing job getting this to the finish line. Hunters and shooters are going to be amazed with the fit, feel, function and versatility of this shotgun. And it’s a platform we can and will build on—so look for more in the very near future.” RENEGAUGE has been tested to the extreme—both in the field and in the lab. Everything in the design is intentional and has a purpose. RENEGAUGE looks different because it is—and it brings American-made performance to a new level. The shotgun functions and cycles light loads and magnum field loads with unbelievable consistency and reliability. Avid wing shooters will love the way it swings, competitors will find it at home on the range, and hunters will trust it in the nastiest of conditions. The D.R.I.V. system provides RENEGAGUE with the unparalleled ability to regulate the gas that cycles the shotgun’s action. Both low-brass target shells and Magnum hunting shells will cycle the action with the same reliability and without any adjustment from the shooter. This functionality is complimented by how easy RENEGAUGE is to fit to the shooter. From comb height to length of pull, RENEGAUGE can be adjusted to ensure every aspect of its ergonomics matches its user’s needs. Features

• D.R.I.V. gas system
• Adjustable stock for length of pull, comb height, drop and cast
• One-piece, chrome plated action bar assembly
• Chrome plated reciprocating components
• Stock rod buffer to reduce felt recoil
• Fluted barrel with melonite finish
• Carbon steel ventilated rib with red fiberoptic sight
• Competition-ready easy loading magazine port

I had to do a second take at their FIRST semi-Auto shotgun. Savage made and sold their model 750 Semi Auto Shotgun which was the Browning / Remington 11 design Semi Auto Shotgun copied after Remington stopped making their model 11. The Renegauge may be their first original designed semi Auto Shotgun but not the first semi auto shotgun that they made.

Looking up the Savage Semi auto Shotguns I see that there are several Model numbers 720, 726, 740, 745, 755 775, as well as the 750 I mentioned above. These models were made Savage from 1930 all the way to 1969 in various model numbers and configurations and gauges. The RENEGAUGE might be the first Semi Auto Shotgun that they made in the last 50 years and designed by them selves but of course it is not the first Savage Semi Auto Shotgun.
