Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Need to look up Serial number for Winchester m 70

the dark walnut is what drew me to it, having a liking towards super grades with dark wood as well, this one was just too special. ill be sure to post it up here for everyone to see as soon as i lay my hands on it. but first i have to sell the cdl sf in order to get my hands on this one!

ended up being a 22 tagged 24 on the box

They were all mismarked in that time period. There is no 24” Fwt barrel, only 22” or shorter, with 1/4” bbl. shank.

ah makes sense. now if i could only get these pictures to upload...im having a hell of a time trying to do as such

and here she is

Yep, a 7 digit M70 with the dark stock and slabbed bolt shroud at the safety. Only unusual thing is the red recoil pad, rather than black. They were likely using up what was left of the red inventory before going to black. Perhaps this is an early 7 digit model?

when someone ran the serial earlier they said 2006. here it is again if anyone wants to cross reference it. beautiful gun i think and like you i was confused with the red pad, still happy its on there! gives it a more iconic feel serial is g3032563

Hey folks need help figuring out the year on a m70 supergrade in .270. First 4 is g514. It is a 5 digit serial

Are you counting the “G” as a digit?
A “G” four digit will be an early 90’s CS gun ...

Cs? Custom shop

G514xx would also be early 90's

1993 more specifically.

CS - custom shop. And edited my above for clarity, as how it read and what was meant didn’t match. Not enough coffee!
Win70 is of course correct on a FIVE digit starting 51 being ‘93.

ok yea owner said it was the letter g and 5 numbers following (arms list sale) comes with a old leupold and its been fired 5 times. he's asking 1225 for it without scope. what's ya'lls thoughts

Here's another for your viewing pleasure, and a little less money.

looking for info on this serial G10436 it has a boss system on it, what year was it made and was the boss a factory option?
also, where can i find a book or website that lets me look up serials. seems like most dont let you do input with the g prefix on it.

Just found an XTR Sporter, (push feed) 25-06 in near new condition, Ser/ G20509XX. Red pad, 24" barrel.

From the input shown on this thread, I'm guessing '92-93 manuf?

Thanks for any effort toward nailing this one down.

You are correct.

I have never been able to find a listing of serial numbers vs years for the G series model 70's can someone give me a manufacture date on
my model 70 Fwt. - G1674xx

I think I remember buying it in the mid-90's but I am starting to question myself, not that it matters all that much because it is not going anywhere.

Thanks in advance - drover
