Breakdown guide for a savage 32 autiomatic?

If this is a .32 automatic pistol, Savage made three different models (which were also made in .380, although with somewhat different production dates). The .32 model 1907 was made in 14 versions from 1908-1920; the .32 "hammerelss" model 1915 was made in one version in 1915-1916; and the .32 model 1917 was made in two versions in 1920-1926. There were no other production Savage automatics (there were a few prototypes that never entered regular production, including a .45 version and several .25 versions); references to other models are, in fact, to one of these three.

The model 1907 and model 1917 are mechanically very similar -- in fact, late versions of the model 1907s are mechanically the same as the model 1917, with most parts in common. The "hammerless" model 1915, on the other hand, while it is based on and looks similar to to the model 1907, has a number of unique parts.

For an "exploded diagram" of an early (1908-1911) model 1907 and of a model 1917, look at the "schematics" on the Numrich parts catalogue website: http://www.e-gunparts.com/model_new.asp?CatID=5118

Look under "1907" and "1910" for the schematic for the 1908-1911 model 1907, and under "1917" for the model 1917 schematic. Model 1907s made 1912-1920 will also have some parts shown only on the 1917 schematic. Be aware that there was a major redesign of the model 1907 between the versions made 1908-1911 and those made 1912-1920, and many parts will not interchange between these (although the diagram is still useful).

For the model 1915, which was only made for a few years (1915-1916 for the .32 and 1915-1917 for the .380), it is best to check with a Savage collector or firearms parts dealer knowledgable about the model 1915 -- I know of no good schematic and there are a number of unique parts, including the frame, slide, sear, part of the breechblock, grip safety spring, etc.
