(from AllenDay)
" I don't want some sort of compromise that's called an "improvement", but in reality is just another cost-cutting effort. Beleive me, everyone who is a true Winchester fan will see through that sort of stunt for exactly what it is...........




Thats strange you say that Allen, cause Im surprised the M70 fans have not seen that same stunt pulled on them by those calling the M70 an " improvement" over the M98. Or maybe its more acase of self deception.
The M70 is a cost cutting venture,
No C-ring,whimpy poorly designed shroud,clunky oversize tang,cant change ejector blade without pulling rifle apart, 2pc bottom metal, 3pos safety is overrated.
But believe me,true mauser fans dont have a problem seeing through that sort of stunt.
Mr echols builds m70s,yet last I spoke with him, I asked, "cost aside, whats your pick?"...with a sure grin he replied,"HartmannWeissM98." recieved same reply from Gerry Fisher and Ralf Martini.

(as a general rule I dont rely to much on a safeties for safety. If I did need one for some brief moment of convenience, a tang design is far better for ergonomics.
