The (Portugal) M70 FWTs are still very high quality, at least.
.............and they have that sweet MOA trigger.... OOOOOOOOoooooohhh!
Haha I *knew* you would comment on that. I know some guys hate the new trigger. (I'm not old enough to remember the old one in its heyday, but have never had an mechanical issues with the new.) Compared to its peers, though, in terms of wood, bluing quality, no plastic, action smoothness, having a floor plate, etc., I don't think it's even a contest. The Portugal M70 FWT is as close to "new old" as you're gonna get under $1000.
