If it has a perforated heat-sheild and bayonet lug, then it's a Savage Trench Gun. These were GI up into the fifties, and "unofficial" GI for many years after; they were very popular in Vietnam.
The most common Trench Guns were the M97 Winchesters, and those sell for $1000 at least these days; a Savage could bring quite a bit more.
