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

Welcome mate, love to see some of the collection. I don't currently own any 303 but it's a calibre that I think most of us in Australia that have an interest in our country and history love and think fondly of. Love to see some of your work and certainly the Sako Enfield.
I will get some photos of the Sako. Bought is as it is just a little different and from what I understand collectable and as such have to learn the history of these firearms and why they were converted. Going to shoot it soon and compare it with my other 243 which is new and unfired. Will have to learn how to take video.
G'day,
Welcome!
I'd like to see some photos too, and hear any background details.
Here's a link to mine: https://sakocollectors.com/forum/threads/sako-enfields.11031/page-4#post-78118
If you go to the start of that thread you'll see that TopGear and others have done some wonderful work tracking down these odd Sako's.
Cheers

Roger here are some snaps of the Sako Enfield. Is there any specific history on this firearm, why, where etc. I have a few books written by Ian Skinnerton on the 303's and if you have not invested in my opinion you should. I also own a Martini Henry and 310 Cadet Unfired by me as yet.

Lovely! Cheers for sharing. She's pretty. Love to hear how accurate you can get it to shoot.
Here is my Sako Enfield serial no 1210. Would like to locate the plate that fits the action to allow a scope to be fitted if I wanted to. I have a new Howa 243 unfired so will be interesting to see how they compare.
