Never knew a forum existed for collectors of my rifle. It's chambered in .264 Mag (title was a typo, sorry). Does "No. 1 3696" mean serial "No. 1 of 3696" made? I was told for some odd reason they only got to serial# 500 and then stopped production, but, could be wrong about that. The L61R, which I have, has a space between the No.1 and 3696 and all the other rifles I am seeing just have a regular serial number, so, I am assuming this was the first one of the production run. There was also some story about Dodge City and James Arness having this same rifle, at one time. Sounds far-fetched, I know. It has 'Made in Finland' ... no wording saying SAKO, but, it's a definitely a SAKO Deluxe. I'll try to figure out how to post pictures now. It's a beautiful rifle.
Pictures were east to post. So, please view them and let me know what you think. Thank you.
