Very satisfied with overall fit and finish of new (FN) Mod 70.
The wood is quite descent and straight grained.
The action cycles smoothly as does the safety.
The matte finish on the metal is surprisingly good looking.
The stock when wiped vigorously with a silicon cloth takes on a luster that brings out the grain.
The magazine floor-plate does not close completely leaving a 1/32 in.gap.
The follower is not made of steel.
The extractor seems to have a coating that resists mild polishing.
Has anyone tried to polish or jewel the extractor to match the bolt body?
More to come after I get a chance to shoot it. The weather in the North-East as you may know is pretty lousy at this time.
