Revelation 30-06 pump

Can anybody tell me about the Revelation 30-06 pump rifle? I'm guessing that it was a Savage made for Western Auto, but hoping someone has a more personal experience with one and some additional information. Thanks!

I know that was a Western Auto seller, need to look up on Google etc to find our who made it.

Savage. Don't know much else.

Here's some reference to Western Auto and models. The part that doesn't make sense is the 30'06 part. Not many firearm manufacturer's for the higher pressure round. If it was a 30-30, it would be a bit easier.

If you would please post pictures, it should become perfectly clear who made it.

Its in a gun shop 20 miles away and we just got 5in of snow, a mess out there. Would love to right now but...

Savage made thr Model 170 pump action rifle(also the model 130). This is what Western Auto sold as the Revelation pump Model 260. The Model 170 however was only made in 30.30 Win. and .35 Rem.

Hmmm, the plot thickens. Thanks.

I still own a couple of old .22 single shots made in the 50s, one marked Sears and Roebuck was made by Marlin, the other a Montgomery Ward I aint sure of but a good gun dealer with good catalogs can find out, my old Sears was marketed under the Ted Williams name, I know he was known to be a hunter.. the innternet will help you out..

Numrich has a page where they tell you a Western Auto/Montgomery Ward/Sears model so and so was made by Remington/Savage/Winchester.

OK just got back from the gun store. its a Savage/Western model 260 in 30-30, whoopsies, my bad.

Its still a great find. I'd snatch it up.

Thread should be renamed to "Revelation, it's a 30-30 Pump"

Now that makes more sense, I believe the .30-30s were much more common.
