Is the 1886 45/70 still been built?
« on: March 14, 2004, 09:07:14 AM »
I was reading a lot about the 45/70 in the 1886 model that was built in Japan under licence by Winchester . Was this just a special rerun of browning or are they still being made ?
I was looking on the web and can not find anything in Canada.

:D  Harry, while they are no longer in production, some are still available. I'm not sure what the rules are concerning imports to Canada, though. Some sites are offering them for as little as US$599.
