I remember them. Thought they were heavy at the time. I think they made a shorter barrel version as well. IIRC, NA glommed onto a stack of the Siamese Mausers and converted/contracted them out to somebody for conversion. The action is a Mauser and suitably strong and Ken Waters treated them as among the strongest actions for the .45-70.
You've got one now, you might as well enjoy it!
