[:-] don't say anything to anybody. But, I got a pre-64 model 70 in 30-06 found. It is in pristine condition, and this is the best part. The owner doesn't know what its worth. I'm all giddy. I think a can buy it for 5 bills or less. The only reason I don't own it right now is, I had to go home and check the serial numbers to make sure I was correct about my assumption that it was pre 64.
