Welcome to the Forum.
 
The situation you describe with the safety lever should not happen. My recommendation would be to email at www.winchesterguns.com or call their Customer Service. It may be something covered under warranty and they may direct you to a local authorized repair facility. All the best...

Thank's Gil

Good info, I'll try talking to them. Just wonder if I was the only one with this problem??

I have had a problem with a Model 70
 
I really like Winchester Model 70 rifles and have quite a few of them. Last year, I had a problem with a Winchester Model 70 bolt and took it to the local gunsmith. It appraised it as a production problem and swapped firing pin and safety assemblies with me. The problem was fixed in about two minutes. All the best...
