Win70 pre 64 .300 H/H
#387723 - 15/11/24 02:37 PM

Anyone have a 1936-38 pre 64 winchester model 70 in 300 H/H that they are willing to sell? I targeting that era as they have the matching blueing on the receiver and barrel. I dont think it extended into 1939 but I could be wrong

That era of the M70's, which started production in April of 1936, had the "rudder" safety for the first several thousand rifles built.
My .30 GVT'06 (Sept. 1936) serial # under 2,000 has the rudder safety. It has 2 detent positions only, but 1/2 way between them
with no detent, still allows unloading while the safety in engaged. It swings to the left, rather than the right as in the later M70's.
Beautiful rifles.
