does anybody know of any books out there on stevens single shot rifles or for that matter the stevens firearms company preferably pre savage merger thanks hope somebody can help.

If you haven't seen them already, the two books by James Grant, Single Shot Rifles, and More Single Shot Rifles, have quite a bit on the Stevens line, particularly on their high end schuetzens.

Keep your eye on eBay, too. If you search on "stevens rifles" oe maybe "stevens arms" you might come up with additional titles.

Another good source is Frank De Haas book, Single Shot Rifles, and Actions.
De Haas covers many single shots in this book, but he gives almost every Stevens model single very detailed coverage, including the history of the company's beginnings.
