• 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

HI, all. I'm a new guy - at least to Sako.

I did have a Finnwolf decades ago that was so accurate it was scary. I have no idea why I needed to get rid of it. After that, I went to the gun store several times with a clear intention to buy a Model 75 but then came away with something else.

I just completed a sale through Gunbroker of a very nice Firearms Internation import L-579 Forester in 243. The previous owner says it's been fired maybe 95 times and it looks it. There's no rust or even blue wear, except on the Firearms International Washington DC stamp under the barrel near the forend.

I'm interested in a Vixen - something I've always wanted. My brother has one, but refuses to turn his back long enough for me to let it out to graze.

Thanks for what I've read so far in the forum - it helped me make this purchase.
