• 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

Is it a Deluxe, Or Not?

Sako Collectors Club Discussion Forum

Dom,
That's it. stamped 9.3x66 and .370 Sako Mag. Mine is topped with a Leupold VX-L3 3.5x10, Sako single piece low Optiloc mounts. Beretta did not Import these to the US to the best of my knowledge.

Oh No.....here comes that feeling of Lust again! I know it's a sin to covet, and its Sunday, and I AM sinning!
Beautiful Rifles S-A
 
Bloo,
Thanks. The Deluxe took a while to get. I bought the scope in haste for the Hunter, 2.5x8, then realized it was a !" tube when I got it. Lucky I had bought some 1" Sako ring/mounts from Steelbreeze last year. I'll keep it. My poison is 30 mm.
Appreciate the comments. You better get to church, quick or I'll have to sleep with one eye open tonight:wink2:

Very, very nice S-A! You definitely walked the walk on this one. That's the kind of wood that should be on a deluxe. Just a beautiful rifle. Thanks for the pics and congratulations on an awesome Sako.
 
sakochief,
Thanks,
Going dark now. Just wanted you to see it since you asked. I've kind of taken a liking to it:wink2:.

Back on topic, I think: would it be possible to buy an engraved floorplate and trigger guard and retro fit it to the undecorated 75 I have located? Then everything would be perfect!

I think this is what it should look like:

Many thanks, Dom.
 
Dom,
I think that would look very nice, indeed. On my aforementioned 85 Deluxe I can see it, but don't think I could bring myself around to doing it due it not being a common rifle here in the US. On another, why not?
