Pictures would sure help.
Is the rear stud round or supergrade style?
Is the comb flat or MC style?
Wondering if someone put a super express stock on it.
The gold lettering is not factory, so it’s definitely had some work done.

The stock that came on that originally had two round studs. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/0yNq7LQf/Winchester-model-70-super-grade-question-24hourcampfire.png) That picture from this nice factory original of the same year: https://www.gunsinternational.com/g...rings-and-base-etc-.cfm?gun_id=102266986

I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

Looks like a Wisner rear sight like my 416 wears. That's a Wisner front as well. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/3jaIe8X.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/1pt76qE.jpg)

I have one that is G21xxx. It says supergrade on the barrel and has a really nice stock but doesn't say supergrade on the bottom metal. These were made very early in the Model 70 CLASSIC model. I suspect they made and sold what they had parts for without cataloging every different thing they made.

I have a SG made in South Carolina after FN took over. If memory serves it was manufactured in 2009. Has "super grade " stamped on the barrel but not on the floor plate. I've seen several others stamped the same.

In 1934 John Olin authorized the company to upgrade some of the products and the Model 54 Super Grade Rifle was introduced. The M54 SG was in production 1934 - 1936.
