Hello Gentlemen ! According to an article in the African Hunter Magazine, where results from a study on DG rifle performance are described:"Rifle Lessons learned from the Proffessional Hunter Proficiency Exam" by Don Heath. To make a long story short, the safety on Winchester 70 models is on the wrong side, for a right-handed hunter it should be on the left side! The difference will cost You one second when a snap-shot at charging game is required and You have to disengage the safety in a hurry. Since Winchester makes both right and left hand models, could it be possible to use original parts in order to solve the problem? Has anybody in the forum experience with "changing to the other side"? Thanks for Your advice and happy Christmas !
