The safety is tang mounted and slides forward to fire.
Engraved silver coin finished receiver with wild boar scene. The receiver is equal in size of a 28 gauge side by side shotgun..
24" barrels are made from 4140 chrome molybdenum steel and are cold hammer forged. They are hand regulated and brazed for extraordinary strength and long life then finished in a high luster blued.
All IFG Sabatti rifles are proof tested by Italian law to C.I.P. standards at 25% over pressure of standard factory ammunition. The barrels are measured before and after firing 2 over pressure rounds and checked for any changes in measurements. Only then will the barrels be stamped with the Government's Proof House stamp and returned to the manufacturer for sale.
Fiber Optic front and rear express sight. The rifle is pre sighted for use with 286 grain Hornady SP-RP Interlock ammunition at 2360 FPS. However the rear sight is adjustable for Windage and elevation adjustments are made by replacing the front sight blades available at IFG.
A 12 mm European quick debatable Scope base is included. The scope base is designed to straddle the quarter rib behind the rear sight and attaches with 4 provided screws. The European 12 mm Contessa type base is the preferred base for this type of rifle due to its low profile, strong recoil lug and the ability to quickly detach your scope and still use your express sights over the base. Also this type of base does not detract from the clean appearance of the rifle.
The beautiful rich walnut stock with full Bavarian cheek piece and beavertail forearm are hand checkered and oil finished. For added comfort, the stock has a vented recoil pad.

Developed by the U.S. government for the trapdoor Springfield, the 45-70 was introduced in 1873, thus among the oldest cartridges still in continuous production. In the hands of the U.S. Army this was the cartridge that really won the West! Although officially replaced as our service cartridge by the 30-40 Krag in 1892 the 45-70 saw service in Cuba and the Philippines. It had long since been a popular sporting cartridge--and remains so today. Using a .458-inch bullet in a rimmed 2.105-inch case, original loadings with 70 grains of blackpowder used a 500-grain bullet for infantry and 405 grains for cavalry. Today's factory loads with smokeless powder are mild due to potential use in the weak trapdoor Springfield action. Standard is a 405-grain bullet at 1330 feet per second, with 300 and 350-grain loads at higher velocity available. The 45-70 was and is widely chambered in single-shots and remains popular in large-frame lever actions from Browning/Winchester, Henry, and Marlin.
