ElCaballeroUse the "find" function found on the top of the threads on about any forum here and you will find a wealth of information about this posted in the last couple of weeks.

jeffeossoFN, who manf. winchester guns under license, closed one of two US plants.
should they fail to be in production, the Rights revert to Olin (who OWNS winchester) ... who I doubt will allow it to sit idle long, as they make no money from an idle license

Rick 0311I agree with jeffeoso...if anyone thinks that Winchester (Olin) is going to stop making the two rifles that have been their bread and butter (M70 & M94) for years, then they don’t know much about the marketplace.
