Buddy asked me to post up and help him out. He just picked up a Model 70 in 30govt03. He said it's dated to 1948.
I know that's the old 30-03 so curious as to why the barrel would be marked like that?
Any info I could get would be appreciated. Oh, and I haven't seen the rifle either so can't comment on condition.
Winchester did make mistakes.
There's always a possibility.
Never know if someone put it together for whatever reason.
I'd really like to see detailed pics to help Verify!
Never know!
Anything's possible!!!
