Post 64 Winchester M70 FWT - 12/29/23
So been a bit since I bought another rifle and I'm starting to get itchy. Looking at the featherweights as I've never owned 1.
Looking at 3 different ones currently. All red pad New Haven CT rifles. All either very good or excellent condition. All the darker red stained rifles, not the more satin or matte, duller finish on the new ones.
1 is an 82 push feed XTR. 1 is a 91 push feed, just says featherweight on the right side of the barrel, not xtr.
The third is a CRF that says classic featherweight on the right side of barrel. Do not know the yr of this one as it's after 1992.
Anything to look for in older push feed verses later CRF at the New Haven plant? Good, bad?
