Not true in re. scope mounting. Winchesters made in the last 30 or so years mount a scope in the exact same way that a Marlin does.
1. Attach scope base to top of receiver with 4 screws
2. Attach scope rings
3. Add scope
The Winchester is indeed a bit harder to disassemble/reassemble. Having the correct screwdrivers from Brownells helps.
