For sale is a Winchester 70 Pre-64 (PRE-WWII) manufactured 1937 4-digit serial number. It has 24" barrel with sights. No additional hole in the receiver. Stock has scuff and scratches but is original and uncut and no cracks. Metal has some bluing loss on front left side of the receiver, rear of barrel, and bottom of floor plate. Looks like wear is from years of carrier at front of the receiver. LOP is 13.5 to center of metal butt plate. It has the original sling swivels and a leather sling. Bore and rifling are good. Rifle is in very good condition for its age. It shows honest wear and bluing and wood finish look all original. I'd sell for $1650 shipped to FFL.

Obviously loved and used but not abused and more importantly not altered.

Solid specimen and "buy" for someone wanting a pre-war 70. Getting harder to find in this presentation as well. Priced very fairly. Would add "not bad looking for an almost 90 year old lady!"

Good luck!

This is ultimate classic rifle! I have it’s twin but in a Super Grade.

The workmanship of this M70 rifle is second to none IMO.

Lots of people were talking to themselves on this one I suspect and rightfully so!!!

It did not take "loony" status to see the value in this offering. In fact, I would go on to say that if this particular rifle/price did not "affect" you at some level then you should consider turning in your Campfire card among other things.

I guess I get to keep my card. This one had me thinking. A few years back, I bought, then sold, an old Model 70 Winchester 30-06 with a three digit serial number!😱
Live and learn, but then it might be too late.

My brother is a machinist and once made me a rear scope base that attached to the receiver sight holes. Nice rifle you have I let another family member buy the rifle. Nice unaltered rifle you have.


I walk around like I'm ok, but deep down inside, I wanna buy another gun.
