Noice..
I see a lot of confusion in the future.....
Yeah, but like most things it has to get worse before it gets better.Quote:

Going back to everything being a Model 110 (like it was in the beginning) means the only thing people have to worry about is whether it's a long action or short action 110. Of course the confusion will be "but I thought 3-digit model numbers were all long-actions..." Maybe going Model 10 for short actions and Model 110 for long actions across the board would have been a better (less confusing) step, but if you look at any other brand they don't have different designations for long/short actions. We all just have to unlearn what we already know and are used to. Easier said than done!
Yep! It's going to get interesting around here (not that it wasn't already).
I don't think it will get better........there's still the confusion of a short action 110 from 1960.
If they wanted to clarify things, they should have started from scratch and assigned completely new model numbers for the new models, not just names.
