    But for the success of the HW35 propelling HW forward over the decades AA would probably never have existed with nothing to copy if HW had gone under before the 77 appeared!

    A sobering thought!

    Cue Alistair.

    And if the Chinese hadn't of produced a certain underlever rifle then HW wouldn't have produced the 77

    Also I don't think I've ever seen a hidden underlever rifle in HW's line up.
