• Hey All! Lately there has been more and more scammers on the forum board. They register and replies to members requests for guns and/or parts or other things. The reply contains a gmail or hotmail address or similar ”anonymous” email addresses which they want you to reply to. DO NOT ANSWER ANY STRANGE MESSAGES! They often state something like this: ”Hello! Saw your post about purchasing a stock for a Safari. KnuckleheadBob has one. Email him at: [email protected]” If you receive any strange messages: Check the status of whoever message you. If they have no posts and signed up the same day or very recently, stay away. Same goes for other members they might refer to. Check them too and if they are long standing members, PM them and ask if the message is legit. Most likely it’s not. Then use the report function in each message or post so I can kick them out! Beware of anything that might seem fishy! And again, for all of you who registered your personal name as username, please contact me so I can change it to a more anonymous username. You’d be surprised of how much one can find out about a person from just a username on a forum such ad our! All the best! And be safe! Jim

picked up a colt/sako in 223 trying too find out what if any markings that are differant on the Colt Sakos other than the Colt mediallians on the stock any help please
 
Markings should be very little different. The Rampant Colt on the stock cross bolt is the most redily identifiable feature.

There were two versions of the Colt-Sako. The first was built on the L-46 and L-57 actions and had rather plain stocks. Those built on the L-461, L-579, and L61R actions were very similar in all respects to their contemporary Sako counterparts. There was even a Deluxe grade with an upgraded stock.
