I saw this Steyr Forum and thought a few pictures on mine would be welcome here!
This is not a rifle that adds up to a precision shooter like a long barreled heavy high glass-powered sniper type but I would beg to differ!

that almost identical model has been around since the mid 50's, that makes it a classic to me! lol
Try about the early 70's . I have owned a few MS carbines over the years. MCA's and M1961's and they were of the original design with the Mannlicher butterknife bolt handle and the rotary magazine.
When they went to the Mauser type bolt and spiral forged barrels I just have trouble thinking of them as "classics". They are nice guns though.
