I recently acquired a Left Hand Safari Express in 375 H&H. Barrel is stamped New Haven and Classic. It is a controlled round feed. serial number is G278854. Checking production records, it does not make sense. Any Thoughts?

Hello Jim,

Your Model 70 is a very late production rifle that was manufactured by the U.S. Repeating Arms Company (U.S.R.A.Co.) sometime after the year 2000, but before March 2006.

Any idea of how many Left Hand Safari Express might have been produced?
