Yeah, the very old Sako rings were solid and required you to disassemble the scope in order to slide the rings on. This generally can't be done with most modern scopes -- and even if you could take them apart you would lose the moisture seal and dry nitrogen filling.

I did locate a set of the old style Sako rings but they aren’t the split ring style. I didn’t know Sako made rings like this. These are a single band type with screws on one side like the old Weaver rings.

Those are the VERY old style Sako rings. What we normally refer to as traditional or old-style Sako rings are the horizontally split rings, with windage adjustment, as shown in this photo.
