[QUOTE="7mmShooter, post: 1171974, member: 81795"] Hey guy, wanted to get a few opinions as I'm stuck and can't make a decision. I may be getting a new rifle soon, I'm looking heavily at the American, but my father has an M77 that he bought brand new back in the late '70s (has only had maybe 25 rounds fired to this day), it just sits in the safe unused... Me being a lefty, I would have to extend the LOP to be able to use it fully. The American being 70* throw angle I can use bone stock. The only thing the American is lacking for aftermarket parts compared to the M77 from the searching I've done, is Prefit barrels, and an AICS detachable bottom metal. Given this situation, what would you guys do?? Thanks for the help! [/QUOTE]
