Hello, new member here looking for information on a Sako L61R Finnbear chambered for 30-06, S/N 21964. I purchased this rifle some years ago from a coworker (USAF retired) for $100.00 USD, and was hoping to close in on the date of manufacture and fair market value. Thanks in advance for your time!

- Rifle is in overall good shape, bluing in great shape with no corrosion/scratches, stock shows some normal wear/marks from hunting. Previous (original) owner used the rifle for a few deer seasons during the 1960's and maybe into the early 1970's. I have shot the rifle a few times, shoots well and functions correctly, but have not dialed-in a load for the rifle (yet).
- S/N 21964
- Chambered for 30-06.
- Includes Bofors Steel stamp.
- Does not include importer stamp.
- Includes fine checkering on top of receiver at scope mounting area.
- No information whether rifle was purchased stateside or overseas, but previous owner was stationed around the globe.
- Previous owner mounted an early model Redfield 3x9 scope (made in Denver CO.).
