Wrong buddy just the stocks made in Portugal all other parts made in South Carolina and assembled in Portugal...


Who's wrong here? They say a picture is worth a 1,000 words. Why does it say "made in Portugal" on the box now??????

I'd be all over that 2009 EW for $800.00. Hard to beat that deal on a great rifle. The OP was right in buying it. Good luck to any of you bastids buying the new and improved Portugal pos win model 70..
