Whether you\u2019re a collector or a hunter who desires a rifle that\u2019ll outlast you, the Model 70 nonetheless holds its personal. It\u2019s not only a piece of looking historical past \u2013 it\u2019s a reminder of when issues had been constructed to final.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em>\u201cManufactured in 1952.
