Hi,
I tried an old Winchester 70 last week, we started a discussion when it was made.
The serial number G145902, from the pdf I found on Winchester's website it would be made 1969?
but the action is pre-64 with cotrolled feed etc.
Is it a pre-64? I guess so
When then is the year of production? did WIn produce pre-64 as late as 1969?
Best regards Johan
Win 70 year of manufacture?

Hi,
with great help from https://pre64win.com/ I got the answer. arround 1990 Winchester started to run the manufacturing of Winchester 70 Classic, which pretty much is close to the pre-64. Win also restarted the serial numbers and began to use the G prefix again. The rifle I was asking about was made 1995./ Regards |
