Hello,
I'm new to Sako's and I'm very interested in buying a Finnbear L61R in .270 (non deluxe) I found at a local shop. It appears flawless and has the original front sight in tact. It has no import markings on the bottom of the barrel and I believe it to be pre 72' serial number 34xxx. It has the, believed to be, original scope rings that appear to have the knerled knobs for easy removal and an original removable rear sight. I think I can acquire it for 1200-1300$. Is that too much? Value estimates? Would it be a crime to hunt with it based on ruining its collectibility? Any advise on the matter would be appreciated?
Thank You!
